War against the West and the USA: The Kremlin prepares the Russians for a long conflict - British intelligence

According to the department, the Kremlin tries to justify the protracted conflict and the extent of the losses of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation through the image of war as an alleged direct conflict with Western countries. The Kremlin prepares the residents of the Russian Federation for a long war in Ukraine, a decrease in living standards, but provides confidence in the alleged future victory. This was reported at the UK Ministry of Defense in X (Twitter).

On February 14, Russian Presidential President Dmitry Peskov said that a "special military operation" began as an operation against Ukraine, but over time it took the form of war, when the countries of the collective event, led by the United States, were allegedly directly involved in conflict.

"This is generally consistent with the trend of Russian official rhetoric, which tries to justify the duration of the conflict and the scale of loss of Russia through the image of war as a direct conflict with the West," the statement said. In addition, Dmitry Peskov stressed that the so -called "his" can "last a little longer, but it cannot change the course of things.

" British intelligence believes that it is part of the Russian official narrative, which is almost certainly aimed at adjusting the local population to a long conflict and reducing the inner standard of living, while providing confidence in the final victory of Russia. We will remind, on January 26, the Presidential Presidential President Dmitry Peskov stated that Moscow insists that Ukraine remains a neutral country and does not give up the requirements for Ukraine's non -Ukraine.
