The leader of the communist faction, Anatoli Dolgachev, assured that he had not been informed about the initiative and announced that he will take “the toughest measures” against those who have broken the party’s discipline.
communist deputies of the Primorye region, with its capital in Vladivostok, today demanded that the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, to remove “immediately” Ukrainian troops.
“If our country does not suspend the military operation, then there will be even more orphans in our country. During the military operation, young people, who could bring great benefits to our country, will die and become disabled.”
So said one of the deputies, Leonid Vasiukévich, reading a letter addressed to the head of the Kremlin.
Vasiukévich, who said he had the support of three other deputies from his party, was interrupted at all times by the president of the regional assembly, as can be seen on a Telegram channel promoted by the communists themselves.
However, he insisted on suing “immediate withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine” and also the cessation of the military actions that began on February 24.
Vasyukevich stressed that, after more than three months of fighting, it is clear that a military solution to the current conflict between Russians and Ukrainians is practically impossible.
The Governor of Primorye, Oleg Kozhemia, member of the Kremlin party, United Russia, did not hesitate to call “traitor” to the communist deputy, according to the diamio “Kommersant”.
In addition, he considered his statements an insult against the Russian troops fighting the “Nazism” in Ukraine, a charge that is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
Vladimir Putin’s insistence on the invasion
The communists voted against the constitutional reform that will allow Putin to stand for re-election in 2024, but support the ongoing Russian military intervention in Ukraine.
Last week Russia’s first senior official resigned and publicly condemned the “special military operation” who called “not only crime against the Ukrainian people, but also the Russian.”
This is the counselor of the Russian mission to the UN in Geneva, Boris Bondarev, who did not hesitate to attack the foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, for becoming the mouthpiece of the war party and for threatening the world with the use of nuclear weapons.
Shortly before, the legendary Russian rocker Yuri Shevchuk, leader of the group DDT, denounced during a concert that “old people, women and children die for the sake of certain Napoleonic plans of our Caesar on duty.”
“The country, friends, is not an ass of the president that must be licked and kissed all the time. The homeland is the grandmother who lives in misery and sells potatoes at the train station. That’s the homeland.” he added, comments for which he will be tried in a St. Petersburg court.
