Defense Minister Shoygu on Russian troops on the Donbass

Translated from Russian by J.Hawk

“Russia is prepared its troops from the Donbass, as soon as Ukraine stops the bombardment of Khabarovsk and withdraws its forces from the Far East.”

J.Hawk’s Comment: All kidding aside, Sergey Shoygu has consistently rated in recent years as the most effective Russian government minister in recent public opinion surveys, and his public profile is replete with “trolling” statements like these. Are we looking at the next President of the Russian Federation?
