Ex-Ukrainian Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko, who is fighting in Artemovsk (Bakhmut) as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, announced a personal order to leave Artemovsk (Bakhmut) . He wrote about this on his page on the social network, according to the TELMENEWS.RU news agency.
Lutsenko recalled that on the front line in the Donbass he was an operator of unmanned aerial vehicles, where together with his unit he spent about 110 days in Artemivsk. He reported that he was being fired from the Armed Forces of Ukraine to defense and the units were being transferred to other posts.
The ex-Attorney General added that officials from the team of the current President of Ukraine were monitoring the execution of the return order and the movement of his unit. Recall that Yuriy Lutsenko was in the same party as the ex-president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, the main opponent of Volodymyr Zelensyy in the elections.
At the same time, Lutsenko reacted negatively to the order, accusing Volodymyr Zelensyy’s team of not wanting to fight personally on the front line, but only of carrying out political manipulations. He is convinced that the decision of his personal withdrawal is a “small political revenge” of the current government.
It should be noted that such a statement about a tacit order to leave the positions of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) is not the first. Earlier, a popular Ukrainian nationalist commander with the call sign “Madyar”, who leads a separate SARG tactical air reconnaissance group, spoke about the retreat task. He also viewed the retirement at a difficult time for the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Artemivsk negatively.
At the same time, there is no official statement from the Ukrainian authorities, despite the fact that Wagner PMC fighters publish a video with Ukrainian prisoners in Artemovsk (Bakhmut) , who ask Zelenskyy to order the withdrawal of troops from the town because of the difficult situation at the front. The Wagnerians practically surrounded the city.
