Turchynov: No blockade of occupied areas in Donetsk, Luhansk regions without approval of President
Ukrinform
Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, Oleksandr Turchynov has stated that representatives of the volunteer battalions will not carry out the trade blockade of the occupied territories in Luhansk and Donetsk regions without the corresponding approval of Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President Poroshenko.
Turchynov said this to journalists on Tuesday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
"There must be no chaos and anarchy on the frontline. The servicepersons must obey the orders of their commanders. It is the only way to defend our country. Those, who make their own decisions and start to implement them, will only destabilize the situation. If the Supreme Commander-in-Chief does not approve any blockade, nobody must block and put roadblocks in the ATO area. This will not happen," he said, when asked to comment on the statement made by some veterans of the volunteer battalions on launch of a trade blockade of the occupied territories in Luhansk and Donetsk regions.
