Retired Colonel and military expert Anatoly Matviychuk has stated in an interview with “Lenta.ru” that the conflict in Ukraine could be resolved within three months without the help of the West.
Matviychuk commented on the words of the head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, who said that the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine “will be resolved within three months.”
According to Matviychuk, the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is “crumbling.” The Ukrainian Armed Forces are experiencing a shortage of ammunition as well as motivated and resilient reserves that could replace fighters who have been destroyed or surrendered. He noted that “many” Ukrainian soldiers who are currently surrendering say that they “do not see the prospect of further fighting.”
The expert also believes that the statements of the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, the President of the European Council Charles Michel, and Borrell are “links in the same chain.”
“They assess the situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces as catastrophic, which could be resolved in the coming months. They are trying to stabilize it, but even if hypothetically money or ammunition come, it is necessary to have a well-trained personnel. I suppose they are being a little dishonest here,” Matviychuk added.
Previously, Scholz stated that Russia’s victory in Ukraine would lead the European Union to serious financial consequences “in all respects.”
Earlier, it was announced in the United States that by September 2024, Odessa, Mykolaiv, Kharkiv, and Dnipro could become part of Russia due to the difficult situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the battlefield.
