[..]Under the DPR constitution, if the head of the republic is unable to carry out his duties, they are assumed by the first deputy prime minister: Dmitry Trapeznikov, who had ties to Akhmetov’s sports businesses during the pre-war years.
Another likely candidate for the position is Khodakovsky. This appointment would be in sync with the current trend of replacing popular leaders with in-system security officers. The move would close a chapter in the revolutionary history of the DPR, and would indicate that Moscow is prepared to reintegrate Donbas into Ukraine and transfer power in the unrecognized republics to leaders who are more acceptable to Kiev.[..]
vara bungas: Nesaprotu kādēļ LV ziņu portāli tā pieķērušies Trapez1ņikova personas popularizēšanai, viņš ir tikai DNR vadoņa p.i. lai gan ar izredzēm tikt “īevēlētam”.

UPD1 Trapezņikovs ātri nostumts, tagad p.i. ir Pušiļīns, kas nav diez ko populārs masās.
