The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate emphasized that Ukraine has proven that the whole myth about Russian power is a “soap bubble.”
The Ukrainian counteroffensive in 2023 was not a “disaster.” This was stated by the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Kirill Budanov, in an interview with the Financial Times.
This is how the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate answered the question about the counteroffensive and its goals.
“To say that everything went well is not true. To say that it was a disaster is also not true. Although the initial plans suggested something different, we kept our promise. This summer, our unit entered the Crimea several times, “he said.
According to him, Ukraine has already proved that the whole myth about Russian power is a “soap bubble” and Putin can be stopped even more.
Let’s recall that Kirill Budanov, in a commentary for the Financial Times, spoke about the current situation in Russia and the immediate priorities in the Russian-Ukrainian war.
