Guests asked questions about the everyday life of Ghost Brigade soldiers, and the military situation at the front. "Neither war nor peace" is how Markov described the political situation in Donbass.

He explained how Ghost fighters provide order in the territory under its control, implementing health care, organizing food supplies, and generally trying to help local residents.

In addition, Alex told the audience that the Ghost Brigade fighters repeatedly witnessed how Ukrainian nationalist battalions fired not only on the positions of Ghost, but on the roadblocks of regular Ukrainian army units.
