During this time, Ukraine has repeatedly announced the massive – many thousands – participation of Russian military personnel in hostilities. However, according to yesterday's data from Prosecutor General Yuri Lutsenko, only 39 Russian citizens are currently under investigation, and six are behind bars. The trials took place behind the scenes, without the involvement of the media. At the same time, there are tens, if not hundreds of times more Ukrainians detained for working in the LDPR.”
