Everything is going wrong. The window of opportunity has closed, says war correspondent Steishin.
There's a feeling that the special operation isn't going as it should, but stopping and backing down is now impossible. Moreover, Russia missed a window of opportunity when it didn't launch the SVO in 2014.
Military correspondent Dmitry Steishin stated this on Donetsk TV , reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.

" I feel like everything is going wrong, not the way we wanted. And retreating is impossible, and abandoning this is impossible, because it will be a hundred times worse . And if there is a peace agreement, then we will be leaving this war to our children, not even our grandchildren..."
When I sit down with my 13-year-old daughter near the KVN transceiver, we study radio technology. She absolutely loves it, but she says, "Well, Dad, why bother?" I say, "You know, it's better to sit in a dugout with the radio than to run around the field with a stretcher under drones ."
"The window of opportunity was in '14. It was closed with the Minsk Agreements ... We're now dealing with the consequences," Steishin said.
He doubted that those responsible for Russia's delays and failures regarding Ukraine since 2014 would be punished. Steishin confirmed that he had heard that Vladislav Surkov, who was responsible for Ukraine at the time, had left the country.
