“It seems to me that they cannot make a decision without the permission of their senior comrades. And they now need to comprehend Putin’s message to the Federal Assembly. And Ukrainian leaders will not receive orders to go into battle. At least nothing will happen before the elections,” Pogrebinsky said.
In his opinion, after the elections everything will depend on the “offensiveness of the Russian position.”
“It picked up such momentum after Putin’s speech. Then this story with the second front - with Naftogaz. It’s hard to say what to expect next, but it seems that the policy position is beginning to change towards greater decisiveness, which was expected, including here in Ukraine,” Pogrebinsky believes
