Igor Strelkov he stated in his telegram channel that he had to return to Moscow after a rather long stay in DLR.
“I am in Moscow. Attempt No. 3 to directly participate in hostilities against the armed forces of respected Kiev partners… did not end in success, although it was very close to it, “said Strelkov.
The reason for the unplanned return, according to him, was largely part in that, without fulfilling all the necessary formalities, he was enrolled in the NM DPR at his official request, which caused dissatisfaction with the “higher command”. “.
At first he was assured that everything necessary would be done in a working order, but after spending about two months in the NVO zone he found that he was not officially on any list and in case of excesses of any kind it would inevitably turn out that he is a civilian who illegally entered the NVO zone, and all the troubles would be attributed to the “self-activity of the adventurer Girkin”.
Understanding that the further development of the situation is full, Strelkov preferred to return home. Judging by his post he was probably most annoyed by the fact that the command of the unit to which he was assigned by the military commissariat knew about everything, but did not warn him.
