According to him, the Ukrainian side continues to deliberately impede the implementation of these humane initiatives and does not confirm the guarantees for the security of this humanitarian corridor. The General recalled that in all areas, including those proposed by Kiev, the RF Armed Forces and the formations of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics fully fulfill their obligations to observe the «silence regime».

According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the Armed Forces strike only at the military infrastructure and Ukrainian troops and, as of March 25, they have completed the main tasks of the first stage — they have significantly reduced the combat potential of Ukraine. The main goal in the Russian military department was called the liberation of Donbass.
