The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, Kyrylo Budanov, believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin may try to impose on Ukraine the so-called Korean scenario, which consists in dividing the occupied and non-occupied regions.
The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense has said this in a statement, Ukrainian News Agency reports.
“After the failures near Kyiv and the inability to overthrow the central government of Ukraine, Putin is already changing the main operational directions - these are the south and east. There is reason to believe that he is considering the Korean scenario for Ukraine. That is, he will try to impose a line of division between the non-occupied and occupied regions of our country. In fact, this is an attempt to create North and South Korea in Ukraine. Since he is definitely not in power to swallow the entire state," said Brigadier General Kyrylo Budanov, head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense.
He is convinced that the issue of establishing a land corridor to Crimea is still relevant for the Russian fascist regime, but there is a main problem for the implementation of this plan - the invincible Mariupol, which has fettered significant enemy forces.
"The occupiers will try to cobble together the occupied territories into a single quasi-state formation, which they will oppose to independent Ukraine. We already see an attempt to create "parallel" authorities in the occupied territories and force people to give up the hryvnia. Perhaps they will want to bargain about this at the international level. But resistance and rallies of our citizens in the occupied territories, counterattacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the gradual liberation significantly complicates the implementation of the enemy’s plans. Besides, the season of the all-out Ukrainian partisan safari is about to begin. Then the Russians will have one actual scenario left - how to survive," Budanov summed up.
As Ukrainian News Agency reported, on March 26, the loss of personnel of the Russian troops increased by 200 people to 16,600 killed, equipment - by 7 tanks and 4 aircraft.
