The Chief of the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov said that russia wants to occupy the Baltic States and is making plans for 2027.
Budanov said this during a speech at the LB Club event.
"According to the main plan, Russia was supposed to be ready to start actions in 2030. Now the plans have been adjusted, revised to shorten the timeframe to 2027," the military said.
The Chief of the Defense Intelligence replied that it was about the occupation of the Baltic States
"In order for an empire - and they see themselves as an empire - to develop, you always have to move somewhere to expand your influence and territory. This, by the way, is the answer to many questions. In the north, there is only the Arctic Ocean and further in the circle, America. Not an option, because it will be painful. In the east, there is the Pacific Ocean and, again, America. The answer is the same. To the south is China, which will be catastrophic - a land border, the same conditions as we had in the war with the Russian Federation, only for them. The only thing left is the West, which in their understanding, pardon the phraseology, is 'greedy', 'sick', 'weak' and 'indecisive'," the general emphasized.
At the same time, according to Budanov, Poland is now, according to the plans that we know, being considered purely for russian strikes, for a military campaign without capture.
