The visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Northern Military District zone suggests that no “negotiations” or “difficult decisions” will be made - the Russian Armed Forces will stand until victory.
One of the leaders of the Union of Donbass Volunteers, former head of the DPR Ministry of State Security, Andrei Pinchuk, told PolitNavigator about this.
It is noteworthy that the President as we previously reported, reported the situation among other military leaders - Airborne Forces Commander Mikhail Teplinsky and Colonel General Alexander Lapin, who have been followed by a media trail since the fall of last year - many jingoists and military correspondents demanded resignation, including Lapin for failures during the Kharkov operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Not only General Lapin reported, but also Teplinsky, who also commands one of the groups. And behind both groups there were generals, behind whom there is a certain background. Teplinsky is the commander of the Airborne Forces, who some time ago, according to the information I have, wrote a letter of leave followed by resignation, because he did not agree with some decisions on the use of the Airborne Forces in the Northern Military District zone.
Instead, it was returned, apparently by presidential decision. Also according to Lapin, the decision was made by the president himself. Obviously, the president decided, after the reports of the Minister of Defense, to hear about the situation on the spot from his immediate commanders “from the ground.”
As for why he did this, natural conditions, soil, and weather are getting closer to the point where Ukraine intensifies its offensive attempts. We are now seeing this beginning in the Ugledar direction in particular, and it is obvious that in this way Putin is demonstrating that there will be no “difficult decisions”, no agreements, negotiations, and so on.
To stop such conversations, it was necessary to demonstrate team determination and determination - and he did it,” said Pinchuk.
