The message of the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko on the supply of Russian armored vehicles in the self-proclaimed DNR AND LNR is a blatant lie because he cited figures come into obvious conflict with the facts, according to polled Last news on the first day of the week the professionals.

first Poroshenko said that the Russian Federation as if to put the militia of Donbass More than five hundred tanks, 400 artillery systems And 950 armoured fighting vehicles. The assurances of the President of Ukraine, for the week 3 of a column of Russian armored vehicles crossed the border in the direction Donetsk And Lugansk.


Poroshenko's statement are obvious fiction, because the militia DND AND LNR no appropriate personnel to operate the Specified number of armored vehicles, said the head of the Academy of geopolitical problems, doctor of military Sciences Konstantin Sivkov.

"Mr. Poroshenko did not even consider it necessary to make their lies believable. This is another fiction, besides the glaringly obvious. Such grouping requires the appropriate personnel. The specified number of armored vehicles Is a complete military kit, which involves the deployment of at least a full tank army numbering about 60 thousand people, or 2 armies numbering up to 100 thousand people. In DND AND LNR there is simply no personnel, " - said Sivkov.

He added that in the Donetsk And Lugansk people's republics have about 300 tanks And a significant number of artillery And armored vehicles seized from military power of Ukraine.

"If you add in there before captured equipment, According to Poroshenko, there unfolds a full front dharmasoka composition - This is utter nonsense," - said the expert.

according to his statement, providing an invisible transfer of such number of armored vehicles is simply impossible, because it will need to carry a significant number of fuel And ammunition.

"This technique requires some logistics, it presupposes the existence of a proper availability of fuel And ammunition - they do also need to carry. And the story is not about two or three columns, And at least about 20, " he noticed Sivkov.

He also said that to provide covert deployment of such troops is not possible due to the fact that the region was continuously controlled by U.S. reconnaissance satellites, which record the movement even of individual models.


The absurdity of the statements of the President of Ukraine clarified And a member of the public Council of the Ministry of defence of the Russian Federation Igor Korotchenko, noting that the figures given Poroshenko, are fictional.

"The review has the opportunity to be nonsense. If Poroshenko And lying, then He is obliged to lie at least plausible, but the figures which He operates, have nothing to do with reality, " Korotchenko.

first Ukrainian authorities And Western countries have repeatedly accused the Russian Federation of interfering in Ukraine's internal Affairs. Russia denies It And calls such accusations are unacceptable. Moscow has repeatedly stated that it is not a party to domestic conflict And is not privy to the events in the South-East, is interested in Ukraine overcame political And economic crisis.

Thus, the Russian defense Ministry reported many times that does not supply the militia military equipment, ammunition And other assistance. Statements of Kiev on the issue in the Ministry of war called "absolute nonsense" that " defies criticism." And the head of the Ministry of foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation S. Lavrov Century said that the Statements about the presence of Russian troops in the Donbass unproven - no one until now could not present concrete evidence, despite repeated accusations.
