"They believed that Kharkiv was waiting for the liberators": Budanov told about the failure of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (video)

According to the head of the GUR, Russian officials discussed readiness for a full -scale invasion of troops into Ukraine. However, the belief that the Kharkiv residents will be welcomed by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation turned into disappointment. At the beginning of a full -scale invasion in Russia, they expected that they would take Kharkiv without resistance.

The head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense (GUR) Kirill Budanov shared the new details of the Federation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. This was known from Dmitry Komarov's documentary project "Year. Kharkiv. Movie 1". "They were to meet them there, and here only some individuals could somewhere with weapons somewhere in the other way, but what is the individual," he conveyed the hopes of the invaders.

The head of the GUR noted that the Russian Federation really believed that Kharkiv was "a Russian city that just awaits liberators. " According to intelligence, two weeks before a full -scale invasion of Russia, an "interesting meeting" was held, which discussed readiness for the Great War. "And some uncertainty began that everyone is so much waiting for the Russian soldiers. And the question was raised:" Where were the money spent so many years? " Budanov.

He explained that most of the money was actually opened by local officials. However, some funds were sometimes spent on information preparation for the Russian invasion. "They still went to the information. Everything else is sorry," the scout added. The journalist noted that he saw in the Saltov residential area of ​​Kharkiv special models - dummies with wooden weapons. "I will tell you, and now such tricks are used a lot," Budanov replied.

He explained that most of the intelligence of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was received from air or cosmic reconnaissance, and from above to distinguish such a model from a living person "quite difficult". When asked that Kharkiv defenders were forced to live in the basements of the houses, the intelligence manager confirmed that nothing had changed. He only noted that the situation is now similar to "other places.

" Budanov shared as a surprise that someone in society needs to explain this need. "According to this logic, it is necessary to leave the residential quarters then, right?" He added. We will remind, the head of GUR Kirill Budanov told the secret of a successful counter -offensive of defense forces in Kharkiv region. According to him, three factors were decisive then - "suddenness, speed and determination of action.
