Responsibility for ‘gauleiters’ appointed by occupiers in south of Ukraine is imminent

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that responsibility for the so-called "gauleiters" appointed by the Russian occupiers in southern Ukraine will be imminent.

“The occupiers played a second very silly April Fool's joke with some residents of the southern regions of Ukraine, where Russian troops had temporarily entered. They appoint some ‘Gauleiters’, some temporary leaders. And they are threatening employees of enterprises and authorities to cooperate with these deceived appointees. My message to them is simple: the responsibility for collaboration is inevitable,” Zelensky said in a video message on Saturday night.

According to him, when such responsibility comes is a secondary issue.

"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is a secondary issue. The main thing is the inevitability that justice will be restored. Therefore, everyone who became a Gauleiter can already register somewhere in Rostov. And there will be problems for cooperation with them or with the occupiers directly. This is the last warning,х" he added.
