Feigin on the appointment of Surovikin/Channel 24 Collage

In Russia officially named the person who will be responsible for the offensive of the infidels in the south of Ukraine – Sergey Surovikin. He actually replaced Alexander Dvornikov. And Surovikin will act harder.

Russian human rights activist Mark Feygin told about this on Channel 24. He says that Dvornikov simply failed and was “pushed”.

But, according to him, the appointment of Surovikin in the South of Ukraine is serious.

After all, Surovikin is Putin's favorite. By the way, in the 1990s he commanded a regiment that crushed three people on the Gorbaty Bridge,” Feigin recalls.

The human rights activist says that more people died there then, but it was these three who were crushed on the night of August 22.

“And this Surovikin, it seems, even served 7 months in this case. And now, you see, he is a general, he has risen. And these are – they are Putin's favorite, because they are ideological,” he added.

Feigin says that Sergei Surovikin went through both Syria and Chechnya, the whole set.

It seems to me that he will more cruel than Dvornikov. After all, Surovikin is not stupid, as an officer he is fully trained and not a clinical alcoholic, like others. he explained.
