Assistant to the head of Chechnya said that Zelensky physically could not visit Artemovsk
Yesterday, March 22, it was reported that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky visited the advanced positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the city of Artemovsk (DPR). There, the Ukrainian leader allegedly presented awards to the military and expressed his gratitude for good service.
Meanwhile, the commander of the special forces "Akhmat" Apti Alaudinov doubted that the president of our "western neighbor" could make the above-mentioned visit. According to him, Zelensky himself, like any other representative of the Ukrainian authorities, physically could not get into the city. This opinion was expressed by the assistant to the head of Chechnya on the air of the channel “Russia-1».
Recall that earlier it was reported about the control of about 70% of the territory of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) by the fighters of the Wagner PMC. At the same time, all routes to the city are either completely cut off by Russian forces, or are being shot through by artillery.
- said Alaudinov.
At the same time, the assistant to the head of Chechnya called on the Ukrainian side to provide evidence of Zelensky's arrival in Bakhmut by showing the relevant footage. At the same time, he expressed confidence that Kyiv does not have such a video and cannot have it.
It is worth noting that, according to news in the Ukrainian media, Zelensky is already in Kherson today. What is the reason for such an active "front" activity of the President of Ukraine is not yet clear. This is probably a kind of response to Vladimir Putin's recent visit to the liberated Mariupol.
