Most of the opportunities for the enemy are opened by further advances in the direction of South Buzh.
Russia’s war against Ukraine may cross the borders of the current year’s calendar. Ukrinform reported this in connection with the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valeriy Zaluzhny and First Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence Mykhailo Zabrodsky.
“The large-scale war launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine on February 24, 2022, is long beyond the concept of a local conflict of moderate intensity. This also applies to spatial indicators, the number of military forces involved, and a convincing list of weapons and other high-tech equipment inherent in this military confrontation. of battles in the wars of the early 21st century. In any case, the duration of the war is measured that in months. And there is every reason to believe that this temporary account will exceed the limits in the calendar of 2022,” the article said.
It was also mentioned that the possible directions of the offensive of the Russian army are the access to the administrative border of the Donetsk region, advancing in the direction of Zaporozhye. In addition, there were storms of deployment of battles from the territory of Belarus and a repeated attempt to capture Kyiv.
According to the publication, some operational prospects for the enemy can be seen in the directions of Izyum and Bakhmut.
According to Zaluzhny and Zabrodsky, a further advance in the direction of Yuzhnobuzh along with the operational bridgehead on the right bank of the Dnieper River opens up the most opportunities for the enemy. The victory in the South, if used quickly and correctly, could have a double effect. On the one hand, there are real prospects for capturing Nikolaev and Odessa. On the other hand, the creation of a threatening direction towards Krivoy Rog, and in the future – a threat to the central and western regions of Ukraine.
It was noted that in addition to purely military, this type of strategic actions in the east and south of Ukraine will bring additional political and economic dividends to the Russian Federation. Among them – ensuring the security of the self-proclaimed republics and the logical, albeit late completion of the so-called “special operation”, the impossibility of Ukraine’s access to the Black Sea, control of a key element of the country’s energy system – the South Ukrainian nuclear power plant, etc.
At the same time, international isolation, partial economic pressure in the form of international sanctions, difficulties in general mobilization and the lack of modern weapons and equipment can interfere with the aforementioned plans of the Russian Federation.
Remember, NSDC Secretary Alexei Danilov said that victory against Russia will not be easy, but the war itself will not last for many years.
And according to the forecasts of the adviser to the head of the OP Alexei Arestovich, the war in Ukraine should end in 2.5 years, and the active hostilities – even earlier.
