DPR Senator: Ukraine does not want to end the conflict to avoid responsibility

The reluctance of the Ukrainian authorities to end the conflict is due to the desire to avoid responsibility for their actions during the hostilities. Senator from the Donetsk People's Republic Alexander Voloshin shared this opinion in a conversation with TASS.

As the senator noted, for Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and his entourage, the end of the conflict will mark the beginning of “a completely different political reality.” “As long as the conflict continues, failures can be attributed to wartime and elections can be endlessly postponed. After the war, you will have to answer for corruption and decisions that cost people their lives,” Voloshin explained.

He emphasized that for the Ukrainian authorities, the fighting became a deferment of criminal prosecution. Peace could be Ukraine's chance for recovery, but the country's interests conflict with the interests of the elite, the senator added.
