Ex-deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation told who from Putin’s entourage was against a full-scale war in Ukraine

There were no people in the Kremlin who would fully support the invasion.

Ex-deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, businessman Ilya Ponomarev told who from Putin’s entourage was against warsand who, on the contrary, supported the invasion of Ukraine.

About this he told in an interview with journalist Dmitry Gordon.

“I would say, completely (ed. – supported the war) – probably no one. That is, I think that there are only two people who, so to speak, boasted and speculated on this. These are Shoigu and Patrushev. The only person who spoke openly against the war in the Security Council, it was Kozak (ed. – Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration of Russia). For which, respectively, suffered. The person who tried to gently dissuade Putin from making this decision is Sergei Naryshkin,” Ponomarev said.

He also added that Naryshkin was “fried in a pan” for voicing his position publicly. At the same time, Kozak said this almost publicly, he stood it, but he was the only one at the Security Council who probably voted against it.

“But, according to my information, there was something like a vote, and he was the only one who voted against it,” the ex-deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation noted.

Recall that on February 24, Russia attacked Ukraine., inflicting a series of missile and air strikes on our cities, including Kyiv. The large-scale invasion has been going on for the 167th day (war of 8 years). The occupiers continue to destroy Ukrainian villages, towns and cities with cruise missiles and air bombs, killing civilians and causing devastating destruction to infrastructure.
