About this in an interview with the online publication Censor. no, said the ex-commander of the Azov regiment, Verkhovna Rada deputy Andrei Biletsky.
“Putin completely won the first stage of this “chess game,” the ex-Azov commander is convinced. – He achieved all intermediate tactical goals in Donbass. No matter how well we put on a bad face, he actually removed the issue of Crimea from the agenda of the world community. In addition, he achieved recognition by Ukraine and the West of an intermediate enclave version of the existence of the “DPR” and “LPR.”
At the same time, the publication’s interlocutor believes that the Russian president did not set the goal of creating Novorossiya in the South-East.
“Perhaps there was initially a plan for some kind of blitzkrieg,” Biletsky suggests. – Although, judging by the actions in Kharkov and Odessa, I would not say so. There he did not actively support the movements that appeared and allowed them to fade. So you don't have to cook (so in the text. Ed.) about some kind of super-operation he prepared to create Novorossiya. The situation was adjusted within the framework of realities. Now for Putin, the question is about “cementing” this enclave: pinning its economic content on Ukraine, strengthening it as much as possible in terms of force, and forcing the world community and us to recognize it.”
"Why not?! – the people’s deputy clarifies. “We ourselves sign his special status and hold an amnesty.” Then we will elect these people as already legitimate Ukrainian authorities under a separate law. In addition, Putin made them part of the negotiation process. We have already moved beyond the traditional pattern of not negotiating with terrorists and separatists. Now, partially playing along with the West in Syria, he hopes for profane elections in Donbass and a quick lifting of sanctions.”
