Alexey Baranovsky, a volunteer from the Freedom of Russia Legion, commented on the raid that continues in the Belgorod and Kursk oblasts against the backdrop of the sham Presidential elections in Russia during a Radio NV broadcast on March 17.
"We still have enough surprises," Baranovsky said.
“At the moment, the military leadership has not decided when this special liberation operation will be completed and whether it will be completed at all. Now, we are working according to the schedule. The last ‘election day’ is in full swing. It's hard to announce yet, but the fighting is on, and we are not going to stop there.”
He also said that the soldiers are fighting with the understanding "if not us, then who?"
"Someone has to do the dirty work — to destroy Putin and his regime. It will not be Ukrainian soldiers. Ukraine will liberate its territory — return Crimea, Donbas, and all the occupied territories within the 1991 borders. But for us, the war will not end. We will have to go on and finish off this bastard in its heart, in its lair."
Asked whether Putin was afraid of them, the Freedom of Russia Legion fighter said:
"If they used to ignore all our raids, in any case, this is the first time Putin has commented twice, which means that it at least causes him some discomfort ‘below the back.’ I don't know if this burning sensation will turn into fear (sooner or later, it will). But the very fact that Putin is commenting is a sign that we are on the right track. Vladimir Vladimirovich, wait!"
Russian volunteers from the Freedom of Russia Legion, the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK), and the Siberian Battalion announced a new operation in Russia’s Belgorod Oblast on March 12.
The RDK claimed to have advanced several dozens of kilometers and taken prisoners. Moscow reported casualties among the Russian army.
Russia's unlawfully staged "Presidential elections" have been held over three days in occupied Ukrainian territories, where occupation authorities have employed various tactics to prop up voter turnout.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
