"This is only the beginning": Estonian safety expert on SAX on the Armed Forces Counter -offensive
According to Saks, the promotion of the Armed Forces is not yet a disaster for Russia, and the Russian army is still able to act in an organized. At the same time, the main forces of Ukraine, created for the liberation of the territory, have not yet started real battles. "We will see success next week for success. We do not know if it is a real blow or a fraudulent maneuver to mislead Russia and make it focus on the southern flank," the expert said.
According to Saks, in the south, Ukraine has the advantage that Russian troops are back to the Azov Sea and are within the reach of Ukrainian artillery fire. In his opinion, it is the most convenient place to disorganize the activities of Russian troops and destroy their forces. The fact that the Armed Forces broke through quite widely, according to the expert, speaks of serious problems with the combat capability of Russian troops.
He noted that the case is not in the inability of Russian troops to fight - they are able to fight - but problems with leadership in Russia. The key factors that determine the outcome of the battle are the moral spirit and motivation of soldiers. "They have a worthy army, but there is no internal conviction for what they are fighting for and why they are there.
Ukrainians are psychologically outperforming them," Saks said, adding that there can be no signs of fatigue on the Ukrainian side, because Ukrainians are fighting for their lives And they will do it until they achieve the result. On June 13, it was reported that Ukraine's successful counter -offensive could force Putin into negotiations.
