Budanov says when there will be decisive battles in Russia-Ukraine war
The indicative period is mid to late spring.
The head of the Defence Ministry's main intelligence directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, said this in an interview with Forbes Ukraine.
According to Budanov, the decisive battles in Russia's war against Ukraine will be in mid- to late spring.
Nothing has changed. There will be decisive battles from the middle to the end of spring. This is the tipping point.
Budanov said that if we apply the football analogy to the year of the big war, about now it is the 70th minute of the match with the score 1-1.
The intelligence chief also said that the Russian big offensive has already started, but it is not successful, so not even everyone is noticing it. Russia is being defeated on various frontlines.
Budanov also said that Ukraine's borders should have a demilitarized zone without weapons and with normal control so that Ukraine always has time to react. It should be within a radius of 40-100 km.
