“I know how many people feel about the negotiations with the Ukrainian side. I’ll even say more, I agree with many, but not with those who believe that Donbass is being leaked somewhere, and that the murder of heroic commanders is an indicator of this.
If many have forgotten, I will remind you that both Givi and Motor were pro-government, that is, they were friends of the Head of the DPR Alexander Zakharchenko and carried out the orders of the Commander-in-Chief. In all interviews, Givi said that his battalion adheres to the truce, that his guys are ready to kick the Ukrainians in the teeth, but as long as Minsk-2 exists, they will not go on the offensive.
Then why did people begin to think that the murder of Arsen and Mikhail was a kind of sacrifice for the continuation of the Minsk negotiations? Could the battalion commanders, who obeyed orders and did not intend to violate the truce, become an obstacle to negotiations in Minsk? How does this opinion differ from the fact that the DPR army itself is striking Donetsk?
On the contrary, there is an enemy who laughs and rejoices. He managed, on the one hand, to kill the main enemy, from whom the soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces wet their pants, and, on the other hand, to sow confusion and scare the Donbass.
Less panic. Motor's place was taken by Vokha, and Givi's place will be replaced by another fighter - no less brave than Misha Tolstykh was. Donbass will fight as long as there are people like Givi. And they exist! – the military correspondent wrote on his blog.
