DPR army soldier Yuri Kolomiytsev (“Syoma”) from the “Medvedevtsy” platoon of the “Vostok” battalion, who took part in the battles with the Ukrainian Armed Forces for Saur-Mogila, stated this to a “PolitNavigator” correspondent.
“I’ve been in the army since May 2014,” says the soldier. “I think that the Republic is going the right way.” Of course, this path is difficult, but becoming easy cannot be. It is often said that we do not have enough professionals here. It’s true, many people fled here when the war began. Well, we are constantly learning and developing. Everything will be fine with us. And if those who escaped return, we will still see whether to accept them or not.”
“Our brothers, who are now in the trenches, are ready for any aggression from Ukraine,” Klomiytsev added. – But let the Ukrainian military think about whether they need this. I don’t understand how they could hate us so much in two years. The best option for them is to remove the bayonets and go home. I took part in the defense of Saur-Mogila. There is still bitterness in my heart from the fact that we have lost many comrades. I lost my friend and brother - a wonderful man, the father of two daughters - Oleg Grigorievich Grishin (platoon commander. – Auth.). He and I have been going through life together since the army, since 86. And they went to fight together, and defended Saur-Mogila together. He died... Many more good friends died here. There’s not enough fingers to list them all.”
“Wonderful people come to fight with us. For example, one volunteer from Novosibirsk, a 26-year-old guy, graduated from Moscow State University with honors. He says: “I just couldn’t watch you being killed on TV.” Another volunteer, born in 56, is a Doctor of Historical Sciences, businessman, and deputy. He also came here and said that if we don’t stop this evil here, then tomorrow it will be near Voronezh. I have never seen regular Russian troops here. I’ve only seen such volunteers,” the agency’s interlocutor emphasized.
