Girkin: Russia on threshold of military defeat

The former leader of the Donbass separatists Igor Strelkov (Girkin) intends to continue to criticize Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Girkin published this kind in his Telegram channel in response to the warning of political scientist Sergei Markov, according to which the former officer of the Russian special services in his criticism Putin “has long crossed the boundaries of the permissible.”

In particular, Girkin said that he would continue to criticize Putin and report a real situation for the Russian army, which is on the verge of military defeat.

“Russia on the threshold of military defeat and no seizure of small cities and towns does not change the situation. And not only mediocre generals and selfish officials should be responsible for this, but also that commander in chief who appointed them and stubbornly does not want to change them,” – He said.

Girkin writes that over the past 8 years, Putin and the Russian authorities ignored his warning, although he begged the Kremlin to listen to him.

According to him, even if he stops criticizing Putin, it is no longer possible to prevent a military catastrophe for Russia for Russia.

He also admits that Putin’s public criticism can become “suicidal” for him, but he accepts all consequences.
