Steven Seagal Ripped by Org Serving to Ukrainians, Says Hollywood Ought to Reduce Ties

Steven Seagal‘s pro-Russia publicity stunt is not sitting nicely with orgs devoted to serving to Ukraine … not within the slightest.

A rep for NOVA Ukraine, a nonprofit that spreads consciousness of the battle whereas offering support to Ukrainians, tells TMZ … the very fact Seagal confirmed up at a Russian jail website — the place upwards of fifty harmless lives had been taken at Putin‘s behest — is despicable, particularly because it served as nothing greater than a photo-op.

They name it a “reprehensible instance of how when your profession is already tarnished a few of us scrape to the bottom ranges of Earth to claw again any relevancy, even being paraded round by dictators who oppose the U.S.”

The rep provides that those that are flirting with Russia throughout this dire time — like Seagal — need to have sponsorships and alternatives stripped from them … very like how companies are exiting en masse there usually. SS hasn’t had a mainstream Hollywood profession in ages, in order that want is already coming true for NOVA.

Michael Capponi — President of the International Empowerment Mission, one other org that’s working to assist Ukraine — tells TMZ … Seagal, per ordinary, is appearing as a pawn for Putin and that the man was clearly given particular entry to the jail in query.

He continues by saying they have been on the bottom there for five months, and provides this in regards to the narrative Seagal and Russia are attempting to spin … “The notion or suggestion that Ukraine is doing this to themselves will not be solely patently false, it is harmful misinformation and comes solely from Russian propaganda.”

Capponi concludes … “That is nothing however somebody ingesting an excessive amount of Kool-aid. It has 0 benefit. Ukraine is doing every part it will probably to defend its sovereignty. Ukraine will not be attacking its personal folks.”
