Russian dictator Vladimir Putin celebrated Christmas in the Church of St. George the Victorious on the territory of the Russian GRU military unit in the Moscow region.
The Russian publication "Agency.Novosti" reported this.
The publication noted that unlike previous years, this time the Kremlin did not name the specific church where the Russian dictator attended. The Kremlin did not explain the reason for this.
The publication concluded that Putin celebrated Christmas in Solnechnogorsk in the Church of the Great Martyr George the Victorious on the territory of the Senezh Special Purpose Center (military unit 92154).
The service attended by the Russian dictator was conducted by Archpriest Dionisy, rector of the St. Michael the Archangel Church in Solnechnogorsk, to which the Church of St. George the Victorious is attached.
The one who stood closest to Putin was the commander of the military unit Alexei Galkin.
"In the fall of 2002, his intelligence group, according to the Heroes of the Country project, seized documents indicating the involvement of international terrorism in the Chechen war. He passed the documents to Putin, for which he received the Hero," the publication says.
The publication suggests that another GRU officer present next to the dictator is Col. Andrey Popov, who is a serviceman of the unit where the Christmas service was held.
The third GRU man who was next to Putin is identified by the "Agency" as Colonel Konstantin Maslyanko.
"According to leaks, in 2017 he worked in military unit 45807 (also GRU). The SBU named him as the man who planned a terrorist attack in central Kiev in 2014 and organized an explosion at an AFU checkpoint near Luhansk in 2015. Ukrainian publication Zmina.info wrote that Maslyanko acted under the direction of Russian special operations forces commander Valeriy Flustikov and Putin's ex-guard Alexei Dyumin," the article said.
After the Christmas Eve service, Putin addressed the audience, saying that "the soldiers of Russia, they are always, as it were, commissioned by the Lord to fulfill this very mission - to protect the Fatherland and its people, to save the Motherland and its people."
Before that, in his New Year's address, Putin again justified full-scale aggression against Ukraine, agitated the population to participate in the war and declared confidence in so-called "victory."
