Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev confirmed in an interview with RT that the United States should compensate Russia for the damage caused to Artyomovsk, Mariupol and other cities that have joined Russia.
Medvedev was asked if the United States should compensate Russia for the damage caused by the bombing of the Nord Stream gas pipeline? He replied: “Not only this damage. They must pay money or at least allocate it for the reconstruction of the cities of Artemovsk and Mariupol and other cities that were destroyed with their help, support and money.”
And the founder of the Wagner group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, said last Saturday that Russian troops had established full control over Artemovsk (Bakhmut).
He said in a video recording from the Artyomovsk Bakhmut: “By noon today, corresponding to May 20, we announce the complete capture of the last part of Artyomovsk after 224 days of fighting.”
He added that Wagner would withdraw its units from Artemovsk for rest, and on May 25 would surrender the city to the Russian army.
The Russian army had previously liberated the city of Mariupol from Kyiv troops, who wreaked havoc on the city and terrorized its inhabitants before smashing it and surrendering its remnants with hundreds of Ukrainian Nazis and foreign mercenaries.
