A new stage of the siege could begin in two weeks.
The headquarters of the blockade of trade with individual regions of Donetsk and Luhansk regions within two weeks will begin a new phase of their actions. This was stated by the second commander of the separate battalion of special forces (OBSN) “Donbass” of the National guard of Ukraine Anatoly Vinogrodsky at a press conference on Friday, may 26.
“We believe that enterprises which are controlled by Russian citizens, are pressure points that will help to force Putin (President of Russia Vladimir Putin, – an edition) and Poroshenko (President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko – ed.) to make a decision on the return of our prisoners. Russian representatives-business owners in Ukraine are a danger to the security of the country… in two weeks we will begin the steps to put pressure on painful points of the Russian business”, – said Vinogrodsky.
However, he declined to specify what would constitute a “second stage” of the siege.
“Today, our headquarters given the command to mobilize our supporters… We understand that trade with Russia is a very subtle point and not just to block everything, we do it partially,” added Vinogrodsky.
He stressed that today can refuse to supply coal from the occupied territories and Russia. “The decision (to cease the supply of coal from ORDO) is not signed. We push, if necessary we will move the supply of coal specifically,” said the second commander.
