Acceptance stage: Kyiv already recognizes the reality of the complete loss of Donbass
Russia has assembled a strong enough military group to completely oust the Ukrainian army from the territory of Donbass - within the borders of the former Lugansk and Donetsk regions.
Retired SBU Colonel and military expert Oleg Starikov said this on air on the Polit Expert channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“It is impossible to seize Ukraine by military means - just to occupy it, with commandant’s offices and occupation forces. This is impossible to do, because this requires enormous resources.
They only have resources associated with the minimum task, which is the occupation of the administrative borders of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions. I can’t even tell you about Zaporozhye, but in Donetsk and Lugansk they have accumulated resources“Starikov reluctantly admitted.
Earlier, Vladimir Putin called Odessa a Russian city.
