Narratives in Russian media about the “capture” of Lisichanskaya/Collage 24 channel
The Russian army is very eager to capture the entire Lugansk region and reach the administrative borders of the Donetsk region. The Kremlin is even saying that it happened. However, so far the enemies have not been able to control the entire Luhansk region.
I think they understand that they will never succeed in capturing the whole of Ukraine and reaching Kyiv, Odessa, Lvov. Publicist Andrey Piontkovsky stated this on the air of Channel 24.
He announced what plan the Russians might have now. Until Western weapons have arrived in full, they seek to capture as many territories as possible. For example, now they want to take Slavyansk and Kramatorsk.
“Then they want to revive all the Western agents that failed on June 16. Again the same – Macron, Scholz and all the others,” Andrey Piontkovsky said.
Try to impose some new treaty with the help of the event, where Putin will have Donbass and a little more from the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions. Then declare victory to your people, – Andrey Piontkovsky summed up.
In his opinion, they celebrated the “victory” in Lisichansk so loudly, because it was a rehearsal. So they checked whether such a plan could be sold in six months, when they tried to take Kyiv “in three days”.
“As it turned out, it was possible. However, they do not understand that the Ukrainian people will never agree to this” , – summed up the publicist.
