Girkin led a group of militants into Ukraine where he participated in the 2014 Siege of Sloviansk.

I have always believed that Russian blood should be shed exclusively for Russia, for the interests of the Russian people, and not for the selfish deeds of Russian oligarchs and political adventurers. Therefore, my attitude towards Prigozhin is purely negative.
