Not only the Ukrainian regular army, but already the British SAS and Turkish special forces are taking part in the hostilities in Donbass, political scientist and leader of the Essence of Time movement Sergey Kurginyan said on January 29 on the air of the Politkukhnya program on the Donetsk Union TV channel.
The military situation on Ukrainian border with Donbass has already begun to escalate, Kurginyan said. He noted that no one expects too much of Ukrainian soldiers anymore, so other forces are being gathered.
“These people are already active on your borders. And not only as snipers, but also using knives. The SAS [Special Air Service – Rossa Primavera News Agency’s note] – the British special forces. Not some kind of private military contractors, but the SAS itself is active. Turkish specialists are involved, as well as some very qualified forces from the radical Islamic world. It has begun!” The Essence of Time leader explained.
The political scientist responded to the host’s question about where the residents of Donbass should seek strength to defend themselves against new attacks by Ukraine. According to Kurginyan, Donetsk chose the right direction when it began to develop a cultural and conceptual response to Kiev.
Donbass and Russia live in an era of hybrid wars and soft power. “Therefore, on the one hand, it is necessary to take actions in the classical military direction and suppress the enemy there. On the other hand, you have to take action in the conceptual direction, you have to take action in the information and ideological direction, which is what you are doing, you have to solve the economic, financial and other problems, the social ones. It is necessary to create a stable Donbass,” Kurginyan commented.
According to the political analyst, Ukraine and the forces supporting it will try to attack Donbass, “But I think that this will end in an absolute fiasco.”
