Girkin expressed not only his opinion, but he was supported by a number of power groups in the Russian Federation.

The Russian terrorist Igor Girkin (Strelkov), who participated in the occupation of Crimea and the capture of Slovyansk in 2014, has a “roof” in the Russian GRU, which gives him the opportunity to make strong and misleading statements to the leadership of military of the Russian Federation. This was announced on Wednesday, July 20, by an investigative journalist, head of Bellingcat Hristo Grozev in an interview with Radio NV.

The journalist noted that Girkin does not criticize the war itself, but the way it was launched.

“He says that it needs to be done more aggressively, with the full mobilization of the entire population, etc. He complains about the bad war strategy written by the General Staff, criticizes the Minister of Defense Shoigu,” said the head of Bellingcat .

Grozev noted that the GRU (Main Intelligence Directorate) probably thinks so. He added that there could be disagreements within the structure itself.

“Even in 2014-2015, there were facts, we heard that Girkin was used by two groups within the FSB. That is, he had a “roof”, there were people, apparently, a “war party” within special services, who believe that he represents their interests and therefore they allow him to do this. In reality, he has a “roof,” the journalist summarized.

Note that Girkin began to actively criticize the military command of the Russian Federation. However, unlike Russian opposition figures, he did not suffer punishment for his statements.

Recall that the star of the studio Kvartal 95 Yuri Veliky in his next video mocked the conqueror Igor Girkin.
