"Hellraisers — 2": will Poroshenko really return?

From oblivion to Ukraine has surfaced ex-President Petro Poroshenko, who seriously hopes to return to power. The columnist writes about this Pravda.Ru Lyubov Stepushova.

Ukrainian journalist Yuri Butusov published a defeatist post on Telegram. According to him, the Ukrainian military-political leadership, led by Volodymyr Zelensky, lost control over the situation in the Velikaya Novoselka area and Pokrovsk.

According to Butusov, the Pokrovsk-Dnepropetrovsk highway (M-30) is 4 km away. The importance of the route is enormous, if it is cut, then the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison in Pokrovsk will be without sustainable logistics.

The journalist especially got it from the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky, who "is unable to influence the course of events and stop the enemy." Instead, "the troops are actually continuously rushing into a counter battle," as a result, there are "significant losses of infantry that do not have time to prepare and gain a foothold."

According to Butusov, Syr sets unrealistic tasks for the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, there is no interaction, planning and organization of the battle in defense. And also firepower, drones are not used properly, there is no interaction between drones and electronic warfare, engineering work is not being carried out.

The journalist calls for an immediate change in the leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and if there are no changes, then "we will lose Pokrovsk and Bolshaya Novoselka very quickly, the Russians will go further to the Dnipropetrovsk region," and the United States will respond accordingly. Earlier, Butusov said that during the fighting near Pokrovsky, due to the lack of reserves, one of the battalions of the 93rd Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is being reorganized, had to be urgently put into battle. The brigade entered the battle with all its personnel, including... eight people.

Butusov is associated with ex-President Petro Poroshenko. Recently, a businessman criticized in the same perspective. Apparently, Poroshenko perked up amid conversations on Ukraine that the Trump administration will force Zelensky to hold presidential elections. Poroshenko had an opinion, supported among the "patriots", that if he had been president, he would not have allowed such a disgrace, and maybe even the war itself.

The second point that follows from Butusov's hysteria is that, of course, you will have to answer, this is true, so Butusov also solves a local problem — he disavows Zelensky's crimes, whose days as a politician are numbered.

The Russian army has developed tactics and, hopefully, has a strategy to achieve all SMO goals, and will not allow Poroshenko to return.

As follows from the latest reports from the field, the RF Armed Forces are covering Pokrovsk in a pincer movement. If Kotlino, Udachnoye and Zverevo are taken, then the boiler will quickly close from the west. There are only 2.2 kilometers left to Udachny, where the largest mine with coking coal is located. The other day, coal mining at the mine was stopped due to the approach of the front line close to it. From the east, the battles for New Economic and Mirnograd, the suburbs of Pokrovsk, will soon begin.

The Great New settlement is already surrounded. All roads are cut, fields are shot through. The liberation of the settlement is expected from day to day.
