According to RIA Novosti, he noted that Zelensky’s “peace plan” to resolve the conflict “turned into more blood” than under his predecessor Petro Poroshenko.

“Vladimir Zelensky became president of Ukraine thanks to slogans on the settlement of the conflict in the Donbass. He said that you just need to stop shooting. But a year passed, and the Ukrainian army did not stop firing, despite all the peaceful initiatives of the Donbass people's republics, ”said Bidevka.

According to him, Zelensky’s constant threats to leave the Minsk format, obviously, also have no foundation.

“He is not able to take any steps on his own, and we see that today neither Germany nor France will support such a position. Only nationalists need this, ”added the chairman of the People’s Council.

Earlier, the head of the representative office of the self-proclaimed DPR in the Joint Center for the Control and Coordination of the Ceasefire in Donbass, Ruslan Yakubov, said that the number of victims and the number of destruction in the Donbass due to the actions of the Ukrainian army in the first year of Zelensky’s presidency was almost double that of the last year of Peter's reign Poroshenko.
