Russia and militants in the Donbas will not be able to seize new territories, breaking the resistance of the Ukrainian military.

Such an opinion was expressed by the Coordinator of the "Information Resistance" group, the People's Deputy of the Russian Federation Dmitri Tymchuk, to "Apostrophe".

"If we talk about the possibility for additional forces and means of the Russian Federation to take control of some other areas of the unoccupied territory of the Lugansk region, I do not believe this.

But there may be a series of armed provocations, as for today the Armed Forces of Ukraine, carrying out tasks in the Donbass, have already enough opportunities to stop the aggressor, "the People's Deputy believes..

According to Tymchuk, Russia can transfer the 45th and 11th separate airborne brigades to the Donbas, but the practical meaning of this is unknown.

"Putin begins to take offense (to the West) and somehow peculiarly react to the current situation. This answer is inadequate, but from his point of view it is symmetrical on the sanction of the West. This is quite possible, "- said Tymchuk.
