We
read in Novorosinform: “Russia is with you”: Vladimir Putin
expressed his condolences to the Donbass on the assassination of
Alexander Zakharchenko, head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, the
Kremlin official website reported.
The
President noted that Alexander Vladimirovich “was a true people’s
leader, a brave and resolute person, a patriot of Donbass.”
“The
vile murder of Alexander Zakharchenko is another evidence: those who
chose the path of terror, violence, intimidation, do not want to seek
a peaceful, political solution to the conflict, do not want to
conduct a real dialogue with the inhabitants of the southeast. And
they make a dangerous bet on the destabilization of the situation, to
put the people of Donbass on their knees. This is not going to work,”
Putin said.
“I
hope that the organizers and executors of this crime will bear the
punishment they deserve,” he added.
“I
want to once again express my condolences to the relatives and
friends of Alexander Vladimirovich Zakharchenko, all residents of the
Donbass. Russia will always be with you,” Vladimir Putin stated.
Recall
that today in the center of Donetsk near the cafe “Separ” an
explosion occurred, as a result of which the head of the People’s
Democratic Republic Alexander Zakharchenko perished.
Later,
law enforcers of the DNR detained suspects in the murder of
Zakharchenko.
Also,
as a result of the explosion near the cafe “Separ”, the Minister
of Income and Duties of the Donetsk People’s Republic Alexander
Timofeev was wounded.
The
administration of the head of the Democratic People’s Republic of
Ukraine called the explosion in Donetsk a terrorist act.
The
official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia
Maria Zakharova said that the Ukrainian authorities are behind the
murder of Zakharchenko.
Aleksandr Zakharchenko has been murdered today
It
has now been confirmed that Aleksandr Zakharchenko has been murdered
today. You can read some of the details in this RT article
here:
This
murder really breaks my heart, but also worries and sickens me.
Just like the murders of Morotola or Givi, this murder proves that
there is a major, massive, problem with the DNR/LNR security
services. Whether this is pure incompetence or treason I don’t
know, but what is sure is that while murders of charismatic leaders
happen in all conflicts this is the exception, not the rule (how many
leaders were killed during, say, the Bosnian civil war?). It
*is* possible to protect commanders and officials (there are special
forces and services which can do that very well). When it is
the rule, then most certainly something is very wrong.
Two
years ago I wrote an article entitled “The
Murder of Motorola – questions which must be answered”
for which I was hysterically criticized by some ignorant amateurs,
but the questions which I asked then remain unanswered today.
Frankly, I very much doubt that they will be answered this time
around either.
In
my 2016 I asked the question cui
bono in
reference to the murders of so many DNR/LNR leaders.
Now
I ask the same cui
bono about
the systematic denial that there is a major problem with the DNR/LRN
security services.
Two
years after the murder of Motorola the Novorussians have clearly not
solved their security problem. This is why I can only offer the
same conclusion as I did two years ago:
Ideally, the Russians should send some smart and ruthless patriot, like General Shamanov, to go to Lugansk and Donesk and read the locals the riot act (Russians generals are very good at that kind of stuff) and if they offer any resistance, just toss them out of their office (Russian generals are also good at that kind of stuff).
By
now pretty much all the key Novorussian leaders and heroes have been
murdered and it is too late to do anything about this. But
somebody will have to take their place and it is them that the
Russians need to protect now.
Living
in deep denial, cheerleading and flag waving are all very good, but
not when people get murdered as a result.
“With
the Saints give rest, O Christ, to the soul of Your servant Aleksandr
where there is no pain, nor sorrow, nor suffering, but life
everlasting.”
