The Russians occupied Ukrainian territories, but they do not need people.The so-called "checkpoints" are functioning on the border between Luhansk oblast and the Russian Federation. People from occupied settlements go to Russia for food and other purchases, because it is cheaper there. The residents of Luhanshchyna are treated as "second-class" people outside the region.
TRYBUN devoted this material to propaganda information about the "united country" that differs from reality.
The Russians are treating the residents of occupied Luhansk oblast as second-class people.It is not so easy to enter Russia from the captured territories:first you have to wait in line and go through the inspection at the checkpoint.We write not only about the newly occupied territories, but also about those that Russia captured in 2014.
The Telegram channel "Sievierodonetskyi chat Telesever" showed the queues at the occupiers' checkpoint on the "border" of Luhansk oblast with the Russian Federation:
Local residents comment:
- "We are like Russia, but second class";
- "They have a weekend. They go shopping in Rostov region, because it is cheaper there. And what are the prices in Luhansk?".
According to the Ukrainian military officer from Kadiivka Skhidnyi, the Russians have even begun to strengthen the border with occupied Luhansk oblast at the Izvarine checkpoint.
According to TRYBUN's own sources in the occupation, people from Luhansk oblast go to Russia several times a month for food, household chemicals, building materials, etc.It happens because prices in the occupied territory are twice, and for some goods even three times, higher than in the same Voronezh or Rostov-on-Don.
The attitude towards the so-called "refugees" in Russia is also mostly negative.According to our source, people face problems when they want to get a job, enroll children in school or kindergarten.Most men work illegally to avoid being "mobilized".Children do not have any promised benefits. In addition, it is usual for the residents of Luhansk to be refused even medical care when the Russians see registration in the documents.
"I had bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy.Doctors didn't even give me any drugs to stop blood.I was just bleeding until a female doctor took pity on me.For two days, not a single orderly, nurse or doctor approached me.As it turned out later, drugs to stop blood are bought at crazy prices in all medical institutions by the families of Russian soldiers who were wounded at the front" - a woman who was forced to leave for one of the cities of the Russian Federation from Rubizhne for personal reasons and give birth there
shared this information with correspondent from TRYBUN.
There are many such stories. We remind how the residents of Luhansk oblast encountered the Russians leaving the occupation.
Instead, the websites of propaganda media are full of headlines: "One country, one family, one Russia", "Voronezh and Rostov regions will create the Donbass commonwealth together with the DPR and LPR", etc.
New road signs and street name plates are even being installed in Kreminna and nearby. However, unfortunately, this does not help the locals to live better.
The "administration" of Rubizhne does not stop mocking people. For example, the following board was hung in the city:
"Such boards look especially humiliating in the destroyed Rubizhne, where thousands of people have been left homeless," journalist Oleksii Artiukh commented.
On September 30, 2022, Putin signed a "decree" on the accession to Russia of the unrecognized "Luhansk and Donetsk People's Republics", as well as Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts.
This date was called the "official day of celebration" in the Russian Federation. This year it is celebrated even in Buryatia.
