Even if the President of the Russian Federation does not achieve anything, he will simply say that this is victory.
By May 9, the president of the aggressor country, Russia, Vladimir Putin , most likely will not achieve his goals in Ukraine. But in any case, he will simply say that this is the victory.
This was stated in an interview with Channel 24 by Ilya Ponomarev, a former deputy of the State Duma of Russia, who was the only one among 450 deputies of the aggressor country in 2014 who did not support the occupation of Crimea. Then he moved to Ukraine and received Ukrainian citizenship.
What are the possible scenarios, worst and best, if Putin does not achieve his goals in Ukraine before May 9?
As far as we know, he won’t achieve anything. But he will say at all costs that this was his goal and that this is victory, and he will tell the Russian citizens about it.
Of course, this is the most obvious target that he will try to capture before May 9th. This is Mariupol. In my opinion, this is obvious. But whether he can do it, or he can’t do it, he will still say that he won.
That is, in general, it will be more of a confrontation in words? Of course we will. But from the Russian side, it will probably be more intimidation?
I think so. Because, of course, he would very much like something like this, noticeable, to be done. But if nothing happens, he will simply say that this is a victory.
That is, he will try to sell anything for a victory?
Yes.
Recall that the Ukrainian military liberated another village and captured the invaders.
