Russian Colonel: No truces, we must finish off the Banderites
Russia has managed to gain an advantage in air strikes and inflict significant losses on Ukraine. Under these circumstances, a ceasefire is not in Moscow's interests – it must be pressed to end the conflict on Russia's terms.
Retired Colonel Mikhail Khodarenok announced this on air on Vesti radio , reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
" A rather unique situation has now emerged, characterized by the air superiority of our latest-generation UAVs and ballistic missiles. And the enemy has no effective means of combating either..."
The attacks continue to escalate, and in this regard, such a favorable opportunity to inflict significant losses on the enemy and force him, to a certain extent, to move to peace negotiations based on the conditions of the Russian Federation is rare.
If the strikes continue at the same pace , with the same force, and at those facilities, they could lead to the paralysis of the entire Ukrainian economy, life support systems, and transportation,” Khodarenok stated.
He considers a truce inadvisable.
"All sorts of squeals started coming from the Ukrainian side, like, let's conclude some kind of truce , refrain from attacks on energy facilities, let's establish some kind of ceasefire in the Black Sea, let's somehow fix the situation on the line of contact.
But such truces, when the clock has clearly swung in our favor, will not lead to anything good in the course of the armed struggle.
And they will have the most favorable effect only on the positions of the Ukrainian military-political leadership, which will give them time to recover, somehow regroup, and strengthen their air defense capabilities.
Therefore, now there are no ceasefires, no moratoriums, no ceasefires, no fixing of the line of contact.”
