Taking the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions of Ukraine was probably the first objective of the Russian invasion, according to British intelligence.

The “geographic expansion” of Russia’s war against Ukraine is not happening, as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said. About that saying goodbye UK Ministry of Defense on Twitter on Sunday.

It was noted that now the small offensives of the Donbass invaders remain concentrated in the direction of Bakhmut, but achieve “minimal progress.”

“Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Russia has expanded the geography of its “special military operation” beyond the self-proclaimed “LDPR”. He argued that the operation now includes new additional areas, including the Ukrainian Kherson and Zaporozhye regions due to the fact that Western countries supply long-range weapons to Ukraine. This is probably not true. Russia has not “expanded” its war, “said the statement.

According to intelligence, taking these territories of Ukraine is probably the first goal of the Russian invasion.

“The Russian Federation invaded these territories in February, and the authorities occupying the public have been discussing the prospects for “referendums” since mid-March,” the report said.

That is, as British intelligence admitted, there is a real possibility that Lavrov, in his statement, paved the way for holding referendums in the occupied territories outside of Lugansk and Donetsk.

Recall that Dmitry Medvedev, deputy head of the Russian Security Council, also joined Lavrov’s statements. He said that the Russian Federation allegedly needs to “push Ukrainian troops” not only from the temporarily occupied Donbass, but also away from these territories.

Later, Ukrainian intelligence explained that the aggressor’s statements that the Russian Federation was “changing the geography” of the war testified to the enemy’s intention to resolve the so-called “status” of the occupied territories of Ukraine – Zaporozhye and Kherson which regions.

The Pentagon responded to Lavrov’s words about “changing goals in Ukraine”
