Russia has plenty of reserves, it needs to go to Kyiv – Colonel Matviychuk
It is time for Russia to define its strategic goals in the conflict with Ukraine.
This was stated on the air of the Red Line TV channel by retired special forces colonel and military observer Anatoly Matviychuk, a correspondent reports. "PolitNavigator".
“We carried out a partial mobilization. We have quite a large reserve potential., we are not all troops yet... There are some reservists who have not yet entered the battle, they are ready in the second echelon. Political will is needed. And we have already said this here many times. A strategic offensive operation with final goals is absolutely necessary. Every action has a final goal, it is not defined. I do not see that they say, what is the final goal, where is the exit, who are we defeating, in what order and so on. We have a constant tautology. We liberate a village, this village, if it is on the front line, it is somehow...
Bypass it, go 10-15 kilometers deeper, they will die themselves, they will have no food, they will have no ammunition. I don't see any strategic thought from the command yet. The command is either caught in political vices, or, forgive me, this is just pouring from empty to empty and imitation of military actionsOnly then, When our victorious army starts knocking on the golden gates of Kyiv, we will dictate our terms", - Matviychuk said.
The military pensioner did not explain how to solve the main problem of this war – the abundance of drones that hinder progress and account for the lion's share of the Russian army's losses.
