18 stoves for 2,000 people: mobilized from Komi complain about trench life
Today, in the office of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation in Syktyvkar, a meeting was held with relatives of those mobilized with two communist deputies: a “foreign agent” from the republican parliament, Viktor Vorobyov, and a representative of the republic in the State Duma, Oleg Mikhailov. Initially, the meeting was supposed to take place at one of the city sites, but relatives of the mobilized were not allowed there, suspected of inciting extremism.
In fact, the meeting was devoted to complaints about trench life. The father of one of the soldiers, Alexander Savinkov, said that his son’s detachment lives in dugouts, where there are only 18 stoves for 2,000 people, the soldiers are not provided with tools, and they have to buy food in local stores for their own money.
Complaints were hindered by a representative of the veterans’ society who came to the meeting: he demanded “stop asking murky questions” and be interested in the whereabouts of the mobilized, since the Armed Forces of Ukraine calculates them by cellular signals, after which they bomb. “90 people from the republic died because of telephones,” the man said, without explaining the source of his data.
He explained the need to hush up problems in the following way: “You can’t show that everything is bad with us, otherwise the Western media will find out about it.”
The communists clearly agreed with the “veteran” and not only banned filming at a formally open event, but also arranged a control at the entrance, requiring visitors to introduce themselves and state the reason for coming, as well as the name of the mobilized relative.
