The People's Deputy from the Voice Party, a representative of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security and Defense Sergey Rakhmanin stated that the counter -offensive of our military in the Kherson region was going in several directions, noting that the Russians have accumulated a sufficient reserve. He told about it in an interview with liga. net. According to Rahmanin, our military is coming to the wide front in the south, in several directions at the same time.
"As far as you can judge, it is the intention to cover the grouping of Russian troops in the east of Kherson between the rivers Ingulets and the Dnieper for the purpose of further environment," the deputy explained. At the same time, he also noted that the groups of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Kherson region expanded: they brought a huge amount of equipment and ammunition. From 20 to 25 thousand servicemen, that is, reinforcement, is quite serious.
There are quite fierce fighting, Rakhmanin explained. The effectiveness of the offensive will depend on the capabilities of the Armed Forces, on the available reserves that would allow success. "One of the settlements that managed to conquer the Ukrainian military - a dry pond. Ours broke the defense line, it is a success that can be fixed and developed. But there is an open area that complicates the offensive.
Besides, the enemy has an advantage in artillery and aviation," - said the People's Deputy. "How effective the offensive will depend on what forces and means the Ukrainian side will rely on, what reserves can attract to develop success," he explained. In Kherson, specific relief: steppe, few forests and serious water obstacles. Open terrain complicates the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces in the Kherson region, while the enemy still has a significant advantage in aviation and artillery.
"The Russians have enough weapons. They have a virtually unlimited margin of ammunition, they have different iron - from old to modern - a lot," Rakhmanin explained. "They have been preparing for war with almost the world for more than a decade. " At the same time, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation lacks skilled personnel with sufficient motivation. "There are not enough skilled artillerymen, connectors, significant losses in VAT, in the ranks of special forces, Marines," the expert said.
- Approximately they lost up to 20% of commanders of different levels. " Therefore, the Russian offensive chokes even where they manage to temporarily take the initiative. The People's Deputy also believes that on February 24, both Zelensky and Zaluzhny were in their places. In his opinion, there are currently no objective reasons to find the replacement of the Commander.
The "Voice" representative hopes that differences and friction, which are always present between officials, and especially in the war period, will not affect the efficiency of the Armed Forces. The Kremlin tries to put pressure on the European Union, hints at a possible nuclear catastrophe, the consequences of which can affect both the western part of the European continent and the rest of the world.
"They blackmaile Europe with the threat of a nuclear explosion on the NPP, so that they, in turn, pressed on Zelensky," shared their observations by the People's Deputy, noting that the Russians need a break. " "To build scenarios of end of the war is rather to the easel. I think the worst scenario we have passed.
But a bad scenario is still possible," - said the deputy, according to which, the concessions of the Russian Federation on the background of fatigue and loss will become a trap, threatening even more losses. According to the People's Deputy, the Land League Law will make the most of the weapons transfer mechanisms to the maximum, and it will fully work in the fall.
At the same time, in the fall, the United States will block Ukraine with weapons, as much depends on political will: how much, when and that Ukraine is ready to provide. The US President may now issue an order to accelerate the supply of weapons from the Defense Ministry of Defense to foreign countries and organizations within their special powers. Biden President is guided by his own safety and geopolitics considerations.
Every time the decision is made to send the next batch of weapons is taken into account and against. "It will not lead to inefficient use of weapons. It does not undergo unnecessary criticism by political opponents. It will not provoke the Russian Federation," the People's Deputy of the President of the United States explained. Recall that the United States has supplied Ukraine for several months with a special weapon for a counter -offensive for Kherson.
