This was the opinion at the debate “Dialogue in War Conditions?” held at the University of Kiev-Mohyla Academy. said the editor of the OstroV website, Sergei Garmash, who left Donetsk after the start of the conflict last year.
In his opinion, if Ukrainian journalists go to Donetsk to establish a dialogue, they must remember that “that side is at war with our side.”
“Otherwise, we will admit that this is a civil conflict, as Putin said,” the journalist clarified. – This means we remove responsibility from Russia and shift it onto the citizens of Donbass, most of whom are held hostage there. Even their sociology, I see, no more than 20 percent supports the DPR and separatist sentiments. With these trips we are doing a lot of harm to Donbass, because they disorientate, they damage the morale of the people who are waiting there, they want to feel that Ukraine is liberating them from terrorists. ”
