Igor Strelkov: Pro-Russian separatists have brought poverty and ruin to the Donbas
He explained that the pro-Russian separatists have built a copy of the Russian oligarchic system, and consequently there is no power for the people, which is what the masses rallied for in the spring of 2014. According to Strelkov, the war in the Donbas has significantly lowered the living conditions of the local population.
“A tremendous decline of motivation of population is happening there. Those people who a year and a half ago were ready to really fight for Russia and proudly move forward, now consider themselves betrayed. They believe that Russia has betrayed them,” the former Defense Minister of the breakaway region stated.
Is there a face saving operation for Putin to exit?
Thx.
