The leader of the militants of the fake "DPR" Denys Pushylin refused to follow the instructions of his master dictator Putin regarding the "Christmas truce". 

The terrorist wrote about this on his Telegram channel. 

Pushylin said that the occupiers will continue to kill Ukrainians on Christmas Day. 

"The decision concerns the cessation of proactive fire or offensive actions from our side. But this does not mean that we will not respond to the enemy's provocations! Or give at least some chance to the enemy during this holiday season to improve their positions on the front line," the leader of the militants said. 

"Christmas truce" from Russia: what is known

The day before, Russian Patriarch Kirill called for the introduction of "peace" in Ukraine on the occasion of Christmas.

This was supported by the Kremlin dictator Putin and issued a corresponding mandate to the occupation Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Subsequently, Shoigu stated that the Russian Federation is ready to cease hostilities in Ukraine for 36 hours. 

Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of the National Security Council, noted that the occupiers made such a decision unilaterally and noted that there will be peace only when Russia leaves Ukrainian territory. 

US President Joe Biden also commented on Putin's initiative, noting that nothing prevented Putin from bombing hospitals, kindergartens and churches in Ukraine on December 25 or on New Year's Day.
