“No matter what the Ukrainian media say, they are blatantly lying, they turned off all our TV channels, but still saw the recent shelling of Donetsk from the Tochka-U missile system. Is it possible to say that they are fulfilling the Minsk agreements? Now the whole trouble is that in a week the elections of the LPR and DPR, as I assume, the Ukrainian authorities will try to disrupt them, and it is possible that military provocation will be used for these purposes,” the acting chairman of the Federation Council Committee on international affairs Vladimir Dzhabarov.
“Russia will defend the interests of the Russian-speaking population of Ukraine. We have national interests there, and the president clearly said this at the Valdai Club,” Dzhabarov emphasized.
Judging by the military regrouping of forces and the continuation of shelling, as well as the activation of sabotage and terrorist groups in Donetsk, the war will still begin, and very quickly,” says Igor Morozov, a member of the Committee on International Affairs of the Federation Council, who agrees with Dzhabarov in that that the central authorities of Kiev will do everything possible to prevent elections to the parliaments of the DPR and LPR.
“They want to conduct an internal Ukrainian dialogue from the position of winners. I think that by carrying out this installation, the Ukrainian armed forces will be given an order to clear the territory, and the civil war will continue,” the senator said.
“We saw that last time Russia recognized the presidential elections in Ukraine and as a result of this Poroshenko began the massacre in Donbass. Parliamentary elections have now taken place. According to the general logic, hostilities will now resume again,” believes Sergei Markov, head of the Institute of Political Studies.
