What can Russia “sell” as a “victory”/Collage of Channel 24
The Kremlin is obsessed with dates, which is why you need to “sell” at least some victory to the people before May 9th. Therefore, we can expect any provocations from the enemy.
Vadim Denisenko, Advisor to the Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, spoke about this on the air of Channel 24. He also added that they would most likely speculate on the “capture” of Mariupol. commit an act of annexation,” says Denisenko.
Will Russia announce full mobilization
According to Denisenko, it is difficult to predict this, and, apparently, this the decision has not yet been made. This is due to sociological data and the unwillingness of the Russians to go to war.
Military experts in Ukraine believe that Putin will never dare a full-scale mobilization. Since this will entail social chaos and anarchy.
The maximum is covert mobilization in the border areas with Ukraine, and, of course, such mobilization will not be shouted from TV.
The cynicism of Russian propaganda
There is an opinion that the Russians want to hold a “pub parade” in the destroyed Mariupol. To do this, the occupiers use civilians to clear the streets and “holiday preparations”.
Also, Kremlin propagandists arrived in the city, whose task is to take a “beautiful” picture and tell how the locals were waiting for the “liberators”.
