"Presenter: May I ask the last question. You are often communicating with guys on the frontline. What is their attitude toward your activity?

Aleksandr Talipov: You know it's nice when you go to the front line and see cars with the logo of ""Crimean SMERSH"" on the road. Of course, everyone supports, everyone supports our movement. Many guys who encounter some manifestations of anti-Russian activity, there their family encounters, address me directly. But in principle, they thank me for the activities that we are doing and for keeping our rear.

And on the front lines I meet guys with our chevrons, with our stickers, and the activity is fully supported. And many even try to restore order in the liberated territories, because, well, often there are persons who openly conduct anti-Russian activities and should also be subjected to preventive measures.

Literally, the last time when I was on the front line, then bugs were found in the car, which would have helped to target the positions of the guys with a beacon. And who threw them? Well, of course they were thrown by the locals when the car stopped there in a settlement. And there are such persons, and our task is to identify them. The more we identify them, the less we will have some negative moments in our territories.

Once again, there is no such thing as a safe waiter. Today he puts up a flag there, tomorrow the special services of Ukraine come out to him and say you are waiting for us, start a conversation, ask him to do a harmless favor, let's say a photo. After a person has made that photo, he can no longer refuse, because he will be taken for compromise and told that if you refuse, we will leak your data and all correspondence to law enforcement agencies and you will face a big term there. So take another photo of this, that, that, that, and then go there, take that, take it to another place. And that's how you get people involved in illegal activities, although initially they just voiced their position there.

Our task is to stop such activities and to ensure peace and order in our territory while our guys are fighting for us."
