The head of the Ukrainian intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, commented on the situation at the front, assuring that the Russian occupiers would fight on the territory of Ukraine until the end. According to him, if Russia now admits that it failed to defeat Ukraine, it will not be the collapse of the system, it will be the collapse of Russian statehood. Budanov told this in an interview with the Financial Times,

According to him, today the front line stretches for 2,400 km, which is as much as the USSR held in World War II against Nazi Germany.
“At that time, the Soviet Union received much more military support from the West. The West needs to be helped “more seriously”, otherwise the war will last longer and will have greater costs for Ukraine and the world. The first signs of famine in Africa were made possible by Russia’s naval blockade of Black Sea ports and the disruption of Ukrainian grain supplies, ”Budanov said.

Also, agreeing with the Western assessment that Russian troops have degraded and demoralized, the head of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine noted that the Russian army will not voluntarily leave the occupied territories: “If Russia now admits that it failed to defeat Ukraine, it will not statehood. Therefore, the Russian army will have to fight to the end. They have no other choice. “

Ukrainian defenders continue to strengthen their positions on the heights in Lysychansk, retreating from Severodonetsk, according to the British Defense Ministry. The fighters continue to violate the command and control of the Russian army, inflicting successful blows on the Russian rear.
