Russian State Duma deputy Ruslan Balbek believes that Ukraine is trying to withdraw from the Minsk agreements, provoking the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.
“Ukraine is trying with all its might to get out of the Minsk agreements, which is why it in every possible way provokes the leadership of the LPNR to counterattack”, – Balbek believes.
The deputy is sure that the shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine is a “personal, petty game” of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. In his opinion, as soon as the Ukrainian militants receive a retaliatory strike, they will immediately “run to complain that the agreements of the Normandy Four cannot be observed”.
Earlier it was reported that over the past day, Ukrainian troops shelled the territory of the Lugansk People’s Republic 6 times from mortars and artillery.
