Pay attention to the objective coverage of Ukraine’s actions to the residents of Donbass, the economic and transport blockades, violation of constitutional rights and freedoms,” DPR People’s Council deputy Elena Shishkina said.

“The initiative to establish a Commission on Assessment of Economic Damage caused by the AFU was suggested by Sakhanka residents, who asked for help in assessing the amount of material damage caused by the AFU aggression to file lawsuits with the European Court of Human Rights. The Public Commission on Assessment of Economic Damage caused by Ukraine has already been established. This Commission consists of 19 members. This Commission holds meetings, we help residents of the DPR and LPR to formalize documents for filing lawsuits with the European Court of Human Rights,” Chairperson of the Public Commission on Assessment of Economic Damage caused by Ukraine Anastasiya Butorkina told.

“Our task is to bring objective information regarding Zelensky. He is the continuator of Poroshenko’s actions, those nationalist forces that unleashed the war against Donbass. The DPR and the LPR do not put up with the policy that Ukraine is pursuing,” DPR People’s Council deputy Vladislav Berdichevsky noted.
