Despite the failure of its “military operation”, Russia decided to change its plans. According to the American media, now the invaders will throw all their forces into capturing the East. The assault on Kyiv is allegedly no longer their main goal.
The new plans of the Russians were revealed by a high-ranking Pentagon official. In a commentary to Reuters, he noted that the invaders would regroup their forces.
Kyiv was beyond the strength of the invaders, now they will concentrate in the east
Since Russia failed to “take” Kyiv in 3 days, as she boldly planned, the Kremlin is ready to abandon the capture of the capital. If not completely, then at least now it will no longer be the main goal. But the invaders will focus on “taking” the east.
Traditionally, Russia's tactics will be vile and cynical. The representative of the US Department of Defense believes that the Russian Army will try to cut off the Donbass and the Ukrainian military who protect it, in order to later use it as a lever of influence during negotiations.
Meanwhile, Russia has already announced that the first stage of its “military operation” allegedly completed and now she will focus on the complete “liberation” of Donbass. The announcement is further evidence that the Kremlin has changed its plans in the face of fierce Ukrainian resistance during the month of war.
A senior US official noted that the actions of the Russian army also confirm these assumptions. According to him, the occupiers are becoming more aggressive in the Donbas.
They certainly made the East a priority on their list,” he stressed.
Available The United States has also received evidence that Russia wants to draw its forces from Georgia for the war against Ukraine. It is not yet clear where exactly the “reinforcements” will be sent, but Donbass may become their final destination.
