“Military commanders try to avoid storming cities”
In the Northern Military District zone, our troops firmly hold the initiative along the entire front line. At the same time, Ukrainian militants expect a summer offensive by Russia and fear a collapse of the front. At the same time, they are wondering where our troops will move – to Kharkov or Odessa? The eminent erudite and State Duma deputy Anatoly Wasserman told how the situation at the front will develop and when a radical change will occur in the Northern Military District zone.
— All of NATO is fighting against us in Ukraine, first of all, of course, the USA, — says Wasserman. — But they managed to force the rest of NATO members to participate… And the reserves of safety NATO, as I have said many times, may last from one to five years. But this is based on their own internal problems. That is, they need most of their resources to try to solve these problems. Therefore, no one knows what part of the resources they will be able to direct to the terrorist organization Ukraine.
— A radical change at the front in the summer is one of the possible options, — continues the polymath. — The problem is that in the United States itself there are parliamentary and presidential elections in November. Their election cycle is the shortest in the world. In America, all politics is essentially electoral. And this, to put it mildly, greatly hinders them, preventing them from implementing long-term plans not only in domestic policy, but also in foreign policy. Now the issue of Ukraine has become an issue of election politics of both parties. And, accordingly, it is unknown whether the United States will continue to invest in Ukraine. And, if they do, then to what extent. If the United States does not invest another portion of resources in Ukraine, then in the summer a serious turning point may occur in the Northeast Military District zone. And if they invest, then it all depends on how large this portion is.
Wasserman does not undertake to predict how the Russian army will act.
— It all depends on many factors, including how quickly the soil dries out, — says Wasserman. — As for Odessa, during the Great Patriotic War it was liberated by advancing across the steppe expanses, going to the rear. And the Romanians and Germans urgently fled, fearing encirclement and captivity. I think this time the situation will develop, most likely, in the same spirit. There will most likely be no direct assault on Odessa, Kharkov, or Kyiv. Because the storming of the city — the bloodiest type of warfare. And for both sides. Therefore, any competent military commander, if he has such an opportunity, tries not to storm the city, but to bypass it.
