He stressed that Ukrainian generals know about the risks of operations and prospects that open through the transfer of battles to the Russian Federation. "If the Armed Forces are able to continue their work in Kurshchyna, it will inevitably delay the Russian forces from the Donbass.

He stressed that the main fights are currently deployed not in Ukraine, but in the Russian Federation. According to him, surgery in the enemy also has a good effect on Ukrainian morality after a difficult year for the country. The same applies to Russian. "Moscow looks stupid. It seemed to be shaking at the seams and does not know what to do," he said.
In addition, the breakthrough helped Ukraine to replenish the exchange fund and to completely eliminate the narrative of the Russian Federation about peace. "Speaking of new territorial realities, it includes Russian lands captured by the Armed Forces if Ukraine can keep them. It is an important change in narrative," Lawrence Friedman added.
