In an interview with Radio NV, he explained what was happening on the southern and eastern fronts of the war, which provoked Russian dictator Vladimir Putin with their General Staff in Belarus and how Ukrainian anti -air defense is increasing. Video of the day - quite active counter -offensive actions of the Armed Forces in the south began about a week ago.
What conclusions did you draw about what happened during this time? - We tried for the strength of the enemy's defense and it was not as strong as it was talked about. Therefore, we have been successful and develop it today. I am still following such [thought]. Foreign media indicate that there is an active counter -offensive. In any case, there is success and we release the territories, our cities.
- There is such a little vacuum in the Ukrainian media, because there was an order from the Ministry of Defense that we are not talking about it. It is very strange that foreign media publish a lot of information about it. According to the American Institute for the Study of War, the purpose of the Armed Forces counter -offensive in the south is not the return of the captured territories, but the degradation of the Russian army.
How do you evaluate such a statement? - Most likely, the demilitarization of the Russian army. The army is degraded not only in the South -Buzing direction, but in general in the Russian Federation. I mean both as a personnel as well as as equipment and weapons. Talking about some modernized Russian army for today, I think, is no longer worth it. - Politico writes that there will be no blitzkrig of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Kherson.
According to their experts, there is not enough resources in Ukraine, and priority is not the same, because Kyiv seeks to keep as much infrastructure as possible on their lands, in particular to prevent the destruction of Kherson. And that's how do you evaluate? - We have never counted on a blitzkrig.
We have always said that the liberation of our territories will be a very painstaking work of our armed forces and law enforcement agencies to destroy the enemy and the liberation of our territories. Therefore, I am even surprised where they came from. Apparently, they were confused with the Russian army - only she is fighting on blitz. Remember Georgia in 2008, our beginning of the war: they want to get a blitzkrig everywhere. We are not. We work planned, evenly and gradually.
- Last week they saw a very powerful misinformation campaign from Russia: they destroyed a thousand tanks, some thousand personnel. An independent Russian edition of Medusa wrote an analytical article, which, as it seemed, was based on this information from Kremlin resources. They do it for the domestic market or for us too? - They do it for the domestic market, first of all, because they have no benefits and victories for a long time.
