“Need to be destroyed”: Klimenko complained about the importance of the Crimean Bridge for the Northern Military District
The Crimean Bridge played a key role in the rapid takeover of southern Ukraine by Russian troops.
About this on the air of the Internet channel “Censor. “no,” said the fugitive Crimean economist, deputy head of the Maidan of Foreign Affairs Andrei Klimenko, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The Crimean Bridge makes it possible to quickly transfer a large number of troops and equipment across the peninsula to the south of Ukraine, and that is why, according to Klimenko, it is important for Ukraine to damage it.
“As for the Crimean Bridge. There is no doubt that it needs to be destroyed... Why? I will show you with an example what the Kerch Bridge is. Until May 18, when there was no bridge, there were ferries. The railway ferry carries 10 carriages. Military train – 50 wagons. Tank regiment - 4-5 echelons, let's take 4 - 200 cars.
To transfer a tank regiment, these four echelons, 20 roundtrip ferry trips are needed. Each of them, with unloading, takes three to four hours, plus the weather. That is, it took several days to transport an echelon of a tank regiment.
Now they pass, these four echelons, across the Kerch Bridge in a matter of minutes. That is, it was the Kerch Bridge that played a key role in the fact that we now have such a situation in the south. Therefore, the Kerch Bridge needs to be disabled, the railway first of all,” Klimenko said.
