Chairman of the Kherson Regional Council Oleksandr Samoylenko notes that Russian invaders are trying to bribe and intimidate local residents in the Kherson region. He said this on the air of the telethon.
Answering a question about the situation in the region, Samoilenko noted:
“Today we see attempts by the occupiers to bribe our people somehow, to intimidate them. To make them believe that the intentions of the occupiers have changed and they want to do something good for them."
So, he stressed, the situation is "very difficult."
"The situation in the city is more or less calm. But it cannot be said about the situation in some districts of the region, in which we even have completely blocked villages that are located on the line of demarcation of hostilities, and the inability to bring there even by volunteering some - food, medicines, other things," Samoylenko said.
In addition, he noted that now the occupiers and collaborators in the region are busy with the preparation to May 9 (Victory Day).
"This is the learning of slogans, songs, dances. But today, they even have to import actors from Crimea or other regions. Because Kherson actors do not agree to participate in these phantasmagories," said the regional council chairman.
