'''Igor Ivanovich Strelkov'''. Commander of the armed forces of the Donbass Peoples Republic
+
'''Igor Vsevolodovich Girkin''', better known by the alias '''Igor Strelkov''', was a commander of the armed forces, Minister of Defense and head of the Security Council of the [[Donbass|Donetsk Peoples Republic]] in eastern [[Ukraine]] after April 2014. Strelkov, a self-described [[Russian nationalist]], held the military line in what soon turned to a stalemate, but was dismissed from the leadership of the breakaway republics in August 2014, after only a few months.

In [[2024]], he was sentenced to 4 years imprisonment by a Russian court, in most likelihood because of his criticism of the "mediocre organization at the strategic, operational and tactical level" of the [[2022 Russian-Ukrainian war|2022 the war in the Ukraine]] and questioning the competence and patriotic loyalty of the high Russian leadership, including [[President Putin]].

On 17 November [[2022]], following a trial in absentia in the Netherlands, Girkin, along with another Russian and a Ukrainian, was found guilty of murdering all 298 people on board flight MH17 by participating in shooting it down.

==Feud with Prigozhin==
 +
Girkin has made various critical comments about [[Yevgeny Prigozhin]], founder of the [[Wagner Group]]. In an interview with "National Service News" (NSN) in January 2023, he criticized the leadership of the PMC Wagner for "wasting excellent assault infantry in frontal attacks in the most mediocre way", and made several attacks on Prigozhin, noting that he "should not be allowed into public space because of his background as a criminal".<ref>https://nsn.fm/ukraine/ugolovnik-i-prisluga-strelkov-prizval-ne-dopuskat-prigozhina-v-publichnoe-prostranstvo</ref> Responding to these attacks, Prigozhin invited Girkin to join the ranks of the Wagner PMC at that time fighting in Ukraine.<ref>https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/01/26/7386616/</ref> After Girkin declined, Prigozhin accused him of having made a secret deal in 2014 with Ukrainian oligarch [[Rinat Akhmetov]] to surrender Sloviansk to Ukraine in exchange for money and safe passage to Donetsk.<ref>https://www.dp.ru/a/2023/01/28/Prigozhin_obvinil_Strelkov </ref> In turn, Girkin accused the leadership of PMC Wagner of having carried out the murder of LPR commander [[Aleksey Mozgovoy]] in May 2015 on behalf of the Russian government.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20230710034516/http://novorossia.pro/strelkov/7729-igor-strelkov-segodnya-ocherednaya-godovschina-rasstrela-boevikami-chvk-vagner-a-mozgovogo.html</ref>

 +
==Criticism of Putin==
 +
After returning from the Donbass to Russia in late 2014, he started criticizing members of Putin's inner circle, namely [[Vladislav Surkov]] and [[Sergei Shoigu]], for having betrayed the people of the Donbass, but for a time he abstained from criticizing Putin in person.<ref>https://t.me/s/Slavyangrad?before=8259</ref><ref>https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2023/02/21/putin-says-hell-suspend-russias-involvement-in-last-nuclear-treaty-with-us-after-bidens-visit-to-kyiv/</ref>

In this situation, the bet of Russia’s external and internal enemies is on the further degradation of the country’s socio-economic sphere, which sooner or later (in the absence of a decisive military victory) will lead to internal political cataclysms and a unilateral cessation of military actions by Moscow with a subsequent deepening of the Troubles.

MH 17

Full article: MH 17

On 17 November 2022, following a trial in absentia in the Netherlands, Girkin, along with another Russian and a Ukrainian, was found guilty of murdering all 298 people on board flight MH17 by participating in shooting it down. The Dutch court also ruled that Russia was in control of the separatist forces fighting in eastern Ukraine at the time.[1]

He allegedly made a post on VK on the day of the shoot down in which he acknowledged shooting down an aircraft at approximately the same time that the civilian airliner was reported to have crashed.[2][3][4] The post specifically referenced how warnings were issued for planes not to fly in their airspace and the downing of a Ukrainian military Antonov An-26 transport plane which the Ukraine Crisis Media Center suggested was a case of misidentification with the MH17. This post was deleted later in the day and the account behind it claimed that Girkin has no official account on this social service.[5][6]

Strelkov was the author of an alternative version of the incident, wherein "no living people were aboard the plane as it flew on autopilot from Amsterdam, where it had been loaded with "rotting corpses".[citation needed]

Leadership in Donbass Peoples Republic

Strelkov established military tribunals that sentenced people to death for minor infractions like stealing/looting.[7]

He was dismissed from his position in August 2014. On 22 August a former rebel Anton Raevsky ("Nemetz") said in an interview in Rostov-on-Don that Girkin and his supporters are being cleansed from the DNR by the FSB, because of this insufficient compliance with Kremlin's policy on the republic.[8]

Strelkov is sanctioned by the European Union, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, Canada, Switzerland, and Ukraine for his leading role in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine.[9][10]

Feud with Prigozhin

Girkin has made various critical comments about Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the Wagner Group. In an interview with "National Service News" (NSN) in January 2023, he criticized the leadership of the PMC Wagner for "wasting excellent assault infantry in frontal attacks in the most mediocre way", and made several attacks on Prigozhin, noting that he "should not be allowed into public space because of his background as a criminal".[11] Responding to these attacks, Prigozhin invited Girkin to join the ranks of the Wagner PMC at that time fighting in Ukraine.[12] After Girkin declined, Prigozhin accused him of having made a secret deal in 2014 with Ukrainian oligarch Rinat Akhmetov to surrender Sloviansk to Ukraine in exchange for money and safe passage to Donetsk.[13] In turn, Girkin accused the leadership of PMC Wagner of having carried out the murder of LPR commander Aleksey Mozgovoy in May 2015 on behalf of the Russian government.[14]

Criticism of Putin

After returning from the Donbass to Russia in late 2014, he started criticizing members of Putin's inner circle, namely Vladislav Surkov and Sergei Shoigu, for having betrayed the people of the Donbass, but for a time he abstained from criticizing Putin in person.[15][16]

In April 2023, Igor Strelkov’s Club of Angry Patriots published a manifesto[17], which included point such as:

  • The opportunity for a quick and bloodless victory over the Ukrainian state, which has become a weapon of NATO, was missed back in 2014 by the signing of the treacherous Minsk agreements. The military operation launched in 2022 could have gone according to a completely different scenario, but mediocre organization at the strategic, operational and tactical level led our country to a war of attrition.
  • Defeat in the war will lead Russia to catastrophic consequences. The United States and NATO states do not hide their intentions to dismember the Russian Federation and bring the Russian people into submission under a new [Western] yoke.
  • The military-political leadership of Russia does not realize the gravity of the situation.

  • We will counter this scenario [betrayal by those loyal to the West] with all available means.[18]
  • On 25 June 2023, he said that if Putin "is not ready to take the leadership over the creation of war-ready conditions" in Russia, "then he really needs to transfer the powers, but legally, to someone who is capable of such hard work."[19]

But the country will not survive another six years of this cowardly mediocrity in power."[19] Girkin said that "A lot of empty talk, the minimum of action and the utter lack of responsibility for failures — that is Putin's style of late."[21]

Arrest and conviction

On 21 July 2023, Girkin was arrested by Russian authorities. The official reason was charges of inciting extremism stemming from two posts on Telegram.[22][23]

On January 25 2024, Strelkov was sentenced to four years in prison after a secret trial.[24]

His farewell message on Telegram was a warning:


First of all, the verdict against me is evidence that the Russian authorities seriously believe that the crisis has been overcome and there is no need to stand on ceremony with the "jingoists", "whiners" and "all-overs" on the eve of a brilliant geopolitical victory that will write off everything.
