Russians do not know what to do with the occupied territories/Defense Express
All plans of the Russians in the war against Ukraine failed. Now the enemy is starting to think about the difficult situation he is in and how to get out of it.
The Russians are trying to introduce their own rules and laws in the occupied territories. However, the enemy does not have a clear plan of what to do next.
Russia's plans for the occupied territories
As Vadim Denisenko, adviser to the Interior Minister, said, now the Kremlin has no understanding of what to do with the occupied territories. He stated this on the air of the National Telethon.
The enemy had a plan for February 24, when he started a war against Ukraine, but the Ukrainian army and people broke all their plans, so the invaders do not know what to do next.
Enemy is considering three options: leave some “Kherson people's republics”, make an annexation and annex to Russia, or create some kind of quasi-state and try to play in the restoration of the Soviet Union, Denisenko said.
In the Kremlin, opinions about further actions were divided. Opinions about the annexation drowned out the protests of those who still hope for a negotiation process and Russia's exit from the war with at least some opportunity to cooperate with the civilized world.
In addition, Russia is very afraid of harming China, which has on the agenda worth Taiwan. The occupiers do not want to add such a powerful ally to the Western coalition. The enemy did not make a single clear decision and decided to wait to see how the situation would develop further.
