In a few months, Russia will have a cruel new ally - a Kiev expert
In winter, military operations in Ukraine will be replaced by energy attacks on Kyiv and its European allies.
Ukrainian political scientist Olesya Yakhno stated this on the air of “Ukrlife”, the correspondent of “PolitNavigator” reports.
“Russia is banking on the winter phase of the war. There will still be active actions for a month or two, then Russia sees winter as an ally in its war, realizing that Ukraine will also have a difficult economic situation, taking into account how much has been destroyed and how much Russia has stolen or blocked from Ukraine. The history of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant may not necessarily be of a military nature, but also of an economic nature, if Ukraine is cut off.
Plus Europe, which will face energy problems this winter. And Russia, perhaps, thinks that if it is not possible to forcefully not only impose its rules, but to sow chaos, fatigue or discontent within European societies, then the problems that European states and citizens of these countries will face in the winter will not be easy for Ukraine. perhaps some kind of war fatigue will set in,” she worries.
“And then we can promote a negotiating position that will involve some kind of concessions to Ukraine. Russia expects that under the pressure of such economic problems and the lack of unity of the West that exists, it will be possible to achieve this. But today military logic applies,” Yakhno said.
