As the musician noted, her entry on the list was marked <em>\u201cliquidated\u201d<\/em> after she was killed in a car-bombing. Others who have questioned or criticized the Kiev regime, such as photojournalists Andrea Rocchelli of Italy and Andrei Stenin of Russia, have also been killed after appearing on the Mirotvorets list. The site lists personal information on its blacklist targets, which also include politicians and NGO activists.<\/p>\n<p>Mirotvorets, or <em>\u201cPeacemaker,\u201d<\/em> is an independent database of individuals whom anonymous moderators consider to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/russia\/562061-mirotvorets-gorbachev-death-liquidated\/\">threats<\/a> to Ukrainian national security. The site denies being a kill list; rather, it claims to be a source of information for law-enforcement agencies and <em>\u201cspecial services\u201d<\/em> about pro-Russian terrorists, separatists and war criminals, among others. It allegedly has links to Ukraine\u2019s Interior Ministry.<\/p>\n<p>Waters stirred backlash earlier this year, when he suggested that US President Joe Biden was a <em>\u201cwar criminal\u201d<\/em> for fueling the Ukraine crisis and sent an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/pop-culture\/562311-pink-floyd-waters-zelensky-ukraine\/\">open letter<\/a> to the wife of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, urging her to help <em>\u201cstop the slaughter\u201d<\/em> by pushing for a negotiated peace deal with Russia. He later sent an open letter to Russian President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/pop-culture\/563577-roger-waters-putin-letter\/\">Vladimir Putin<\/a>, asking for guarantees that Russia wouldn\u2019t expand beyond Crimea and the Donbass region.<\/p>\n<p>Pressed by Rolling Stone on why he isn\u2019t supportive of Ukraine\u2019s resistance against Russian forces, Waters said, <em>\u201cBecause it\u2019s an unnecessary war, and those people should not be dying. And Russia should not have been encouraged to invade Ukraine.\u201d<\/em> He also dismissed reports of Russian war crimes in Ukraine as Western propaganda.<\/p>\n<p>Two concerts that Waters had scheduled for next April in Krakow, Poland, may be canceled because of his push for a negotiated peace in Ukraine, the musician said late last month. <em>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/pop-culture\/563485-waters-gigs-cancelled-poland-ukraine\/\">Draconian censoring<\/a> of my work will deny them the opportunity to make up their own minds,\u201d<\/em> he said of his Polish audiences.<\/p>\n<p>The wide-ranging Mirotvorets kill list also includes Faina Savenkova, a <a href=\"https:\/\/mronline.org\/2022\/09\/22\/13-year-old-on-ukrainian-govt-kill-list-speaks-out\/\">13-year-old girl<\/a> in the Lugansk People\u2019s Republic who called for the United Nations to end the fighting that has dragged on in her region since 2014.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/564069-roger-waters-put-on-ukraine-kill-list\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters claims he\u2019s been targeted for \u201cliquidation\u201d after urging Kiev to make peace with Russia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":194244,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[91,116],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-259493","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-russia","category-ukraine"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259493","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=259493"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259493\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":259494,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259493\/revisions\/259494"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/194244"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=259493"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=259493"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=259493"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
