“There is a threat of aggravation of the situation in the Donbass in connection with the activation of Ukrainian nationalists, neo-Nazis ... They participated in punitive actions in the Donbass, were always present on the demarcation line and were far from always subordinate to the official command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” Gryzlova quotes TASS.

According to him, at present, these groups "declare plans to occupy all positions in Petrovsky and Zolotoy."

“All this causes an extremely negative reaction of the residents of Donbass and is reflected in the work of the Contact Group,” he added.

Earlier, the Russian Foreign Ministry called on international structures to evaluate neo-Nazi stocks in Kiev.

On October 15, in the self-proclaimed DPR, they said that the Ukrainian army deployed armored vehicles in the area of ​​the force-breeding station near Petrovsky in the Donbass.

As emphasized by the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, Kiev expects that the withdrawal of troops in the Donbass will take place before the beginning of November.
