The MP of the Verkhovnaya Rada and the ex-leader of the «Right Sector» (an extremist organization prohibited in Russia), Dmitry Yarosh, is confident of the ability of the Ukrainian army to conduct an instant operation to seize Donbass, Ukrainian media reported. At the same time, the MP, who is also an adviser to the chief of the General Staff of Ukraine, noted that such actions were unlikely on the territory of the Crimea. 

‘I understand that it will be difficult to liberate the Crimea, after Russia has turned it into a huge military base by military means. But this is within our power to conduct, in our time, when we are ready, an instant military operation in the eastern districts of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions,’ he said.
