Igor Girkin, the former commander of Russian forces in occupied Ukraine's Donetsk Oblast, has been arrested in Moscow on extremism charges, according to his wife and Russian media. Girkin, also known as Igor Strelkov, is a former colonel in Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) and served as defense minister in the separatist Donetsk People's Republic in eastern Ukraine. Girkin was previously found guilty in 2022 by a Dutch court for his role in the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 in 2014, which resulted in the death of all 298 people on board - Ground News

Russian pro-war extremist is critical of Putin? Wtf

[–] exapsy 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, he's pro-war, not pro-putin. He wants to win the war. And Putin is literally doing everything but that.

@Butters @exapsy Simple dear Watson. The only opposition allowed are those who want the war & the regime to become even more brutal.
