Semenchenko's gang is preparing a new blow to the Ukrainian energy sector
The second stage of the blockade of Donbass, about which Ukrainian radicals announced, will be primarily aimed at blocking coal supplies from Russian territory.

This opinion was expressed in a commentary to Moskovsky Komsomolets by Ukrainian political scientist and international affairs specialist Andrei Buzarov, according to whom it is unlikely that we are talking about strengthening the blockade of Donbass, since “there is nothing to block there anymore except the passenger flow and minor freight traffic.”
“Most likely, we are talking about preventing the import of coal from the Russian Federation to the territory of Ukraine. The fact is that as soon as the import of coal from the Donbass territories not controlled by Kyiv stopped, this did not hit the country much, since trade with Russia continued. If this trade channel is now blocked, this could be a serious blow to Ukraine’s energy sector. In this case, it will be necessary to look for alternative options for supplying energy resources, for example, from the USA or other countries. Kyiv’s actions will proceed precisely from this. If an alternative is found, Semenchenko’s actions will be perceived as political PR for his party. I believe that the authorities will not interfere with the radicals or try to stop them,” the expert predicts.
