"Ready for the Worst": Naev told whether the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are planning an offensive in the northwest of Ukraine

According to the Commander of the Joint Forces of the Armed Forces, more than 60 additional observation points were installed, and approximately 15 new strategically important support positions were created. This makes it possible to monitor the situation. There is currently no danger of the offensive from the Russian forces in the northwestern direction. However, if the enemy makes a decision on armed actions, he will take at least one and a half months to organize preparation and mobilization.

The Commander of the Joint Forces of the Armed Forces Sergey Naev told this in an interview with RBC-Ukraine. In particular, in this region, the land is actively conducting, new fortified defense positions are placed, as well as strengthening the protection and protection of key strategic objects, in particular the energy systems of Ukraine. According to Nayev, there are no signs in this direction that the Russians are preparing for a ground offensive operation.

However, Nayev noted that it is impossible to predict the future. He stressed that the Ukrainian military always focuses on the worst scenario of events. "If we are ready for the worst scenario, then we will be ready, if the enemy's forces are smaller. I will say so, now there is no literal threat, but it can be formed in the future. To create the necessary forces and start offensive actions here, he will need at least one and a half moon, "he said.

The General noted that more than 60 additional observation points were installed on the border territory of Rivne region, and approximately 15 new strategically important support positions were created. In addition, tens of thousands of mines are installed, of which at least 20% are anti -personnel mines in the controlled version.
