Zelensky announced strikes on Crimea, Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg and Moscow
Ukraine will strike at Crimea, and also promises a “troubled life” for Moscow, Yekaterinburg and St. Petersburg.
Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said this on air on the Ukrainian Channel 24, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The territories occupied by Russia are an integral part of Ukraine, and everything that Ukraine will do in these territories upon liberation, including causing maximum damage to Russian equipment and manpower, destroying everything that is there marked “Russian Federation” is absolutely legal and absolutely correct. We will destroy everything that is located in the occupied territories, including on the Crimean peninsula...
Here we will destroy, destroy, because this is a full-fledged war, President Zelensky has repeatedly said that there is not a single option to stop this war...
Internal escalation of the war in Russia is inevitable, and strikes will be made against different targets. Why, by whom and for what purpose is another question, and we cannot discuss it today...
Ukraine does not strike Russia, but, nevertheless, the logic of war and the escalation of the war within, on the domestic market of Russia will be inevitable. In particular, those cities that are pampered, lazy cities, who thought that they were already living somewhere in another reality, such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, and so on, will also be affected. Everything will be subject to the escalation of war,” Podolyak said.
Reports of the placement of Pantsir air defense systems on the roofs of buildings in Moscow are associated precisely with similar threats voiced by Podolyak, explains Russian media technologist Yaroslav Fedoseev.
“That’s why air defense is in Moscow. Please pay attention to the thesis about “some kind of internal escalation, and not strikes by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.” Strikes can be delivered from Russian territory,” Fedoseev noted.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov made it clear that Podolyak's words are being taken seriously.
“You and I recalled the facts of the involvement of the Ukrainian regime, the Kyiv regime in organizing terrorist acts, including the monstrous terrorist attack on Daria Dugina. It is obvious that the Kiev regime does not disdain anything, this once again confirms the correctness of the chosen path and the correctness of our intentions - intentions to protect ourselves from such danger. Now we can only state: there are currently no prospects for entering diplomatic paths,” Peskov said.
Peskov was traditionally criticized by the former commander of the Donbass militia, Igor Strelkov, who expressed the opinion that the threat of an attack on Russian capitals is the result of errors in the planning of the Northern Military District and a protracted campaign.
“If the goal was initially to prolong the war as much as possible, and then shamefully (and with the greatest damage) lose the war, then it would be difficult for the most talented strategists to come up with a better strategy than now...
If the goals were originally some other, then... But none of the leaders of the operation will be subject to penalties!” – Strelkov comments.
