Arestovich accused Ukrainian citizens of the loss of Mariupol and the beginning of the withdrawal from Lisichansk
Let the Ukrainians themselves blame themselves for the loss of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on all fronts and the loss of territories, who for all 8 years since 2014 did not want to pay the war tax.
Aleksey Arestovich, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, said this on air on the Politeka YouTube channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

“We are paying our price for the decisions that were made - “why should I pay this war tax?”, as we used to say. They didn't pay, now you're scooping it up. Now we are discussing why we left Mariupol, allowed us to capture the south and are leaving Lisichansk and Severodonetsk.
This is absolutely our collective fault. Some for incorrect assessments, others for sowing crap, and others for not paying taxes,” Arestovich accused.
