'DPR' Leader Pushilin Refuses To Follow Putin's Order On 'Ceasefire'

He has publicly put forward a condition to the Kremlin head.

As Charter97.org reported, on January 5, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a "Christmas ceasefire" in Ukraine and urged Kyiv not to open fire for 36 hours.

Official Kyiv, as expected, did not believe the Kremlin, and propagandists once loyal to Putin expressed outright disappointment with his order.

However, the leader of the "DPR" formation, Denis Pushylin, was the most aggressive, publicly "nullifying" the authority of the Kremlin master by refusing to comply with the ceasefire.

According to the terrorist, "a ceasefire is out of the question".

He made a condition to the Russian president: his "troops" would respond to "enemy provocations" and would not allow any advance towards the line of contact.

The Ukrainians are ready for any development of events on January 6 and 7, but knowing the "traditions" of the Russian army, they are waiting for provocations. It is possible that after another shelling, the occupiers will accuse the Ukrainian side of a fabricated violation.
