Ilya Navikov, the attorney for Ukrainian Army pilot Nadiya Savchenko, told One America News reporter Neil W. McCabe his client is being subjected to a show trial by her Russian captors. Steven Pifer, a senior fellow at the Washington-based Brookings Institute and President Bill Clinton’s ambassador to Ukraine, said there is little evidence to support the charge that she murdered two Russian journalists. The journalists were killed by an artillery barrage on a military checkpoint, he said.
