An Irish newspaper spoke about Kyiv’s plan to clean up Donbass
Irish newspaper The Irish Times published in the latest issue material about the preparation of Ukraine in the Donbass for an operation similar to the Croatian “Storm”, as a result of which hundreds of thousands of Serbs were driven from the lands.

The publication reports: “Today Croatia celebrates the 20th anniversary of Operation Storm, which captured almost 20% of the country in just three days and forced Krajina separatist forces to flee to Serbia and Bosnia; it also put some 200 Serb civilians to flight... As Croatia contemplates its victory, some in the Ukraine are now dreaming of their own Operation Storm one day that could crush the uprising... bearing striking similarities to the Serbian uprising in the Serbian Krajina."
“Parubiy,” the newspaper writes, “vice speaker of the Ukrainian parliament and former secretary of the National Security Council, called for patience, noting that Croatia waited four years to eliminate Serbian rebels - and the conflict in Ukraine has lasted less than 18 months.”
“It will be the same here as it was there,” Parubiy said last week.
“We need time for the international community to use sanctions to destroy the financial empire that Putin has built, and for us to prepare our army and wait for the morning when we launch our own Operation Storm,” he was quoted as saying. Irish edition.
Donetsk political scientist Vladimir Kornilov commented on the publication of the Irish newspaper: “The Irish Times newspaper dreams of carrying out Operation Storm in Ukraine - by analogy with the destruction of the Serbian Krajina by the Croats in 1995. Moreover, the author of the article admits that that operation led to the forced expulsion from their relatives lands of hundreds of thousands of Serbs. Omitting at the same time that during the operation a massacre of Serbs was carried out in a number of cities and thousands of civilians were killed. Now Parubiy in an Irish newspaper dreamily declares about the Donbass: “The same thing that happened there will be repeated here.” It’s clear what Kyiv dreams of, right? About the same genocide that was carried out 20 years ago in the Serbian Krajina.
So I wonder, what if we dreamed about Britain carrying out Operation Storm in Ireland? The Irish are sure to be very indignant!”
