"It is easier to change the leadership of the Russian Federation": the National Guard spoke about the offenses of the invaders on Kharkiv

According to commander Alexander Pivnenko, the enemy will need to fight for years if he wants to occupy the city in the east. It is also about thousands of personnel losses. Talks that Russian invaders can try to take control of Kharkiv in the near future. In an interview with Liga. net, the Commander of the National Guard Oleksandr Pivnenko told why the enemy would be difficult to implement this plan.

According to him, if the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation really intend to start a large -scale offensive that touches Kharkiv, then they will not be able to change the situation. The fact is that for the occupation of the big city in the east, you need to fight for years. In addition, the enemy is able to act only classically, storming several distracting directions and another that will be the main one.

For Kharkiv himself, this threatens constant shelling, as the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation intends to destroy objects of critical and civil infrastructure. "To capture Kharkiv, they need to fight years. Remember how many Bakhmut and Avdiivka have been. It was separately stated that the Russians did not need a pause on the front, because they are mobilizing. 30 thousand personnel are replenished every month. Accordingly, they do not actually feel the loss of human resources and technology.

"We need to double their losses. If we had doubled or tripled them for six months, we would have some results by the end of the year," Alexander Pivnenko continued. We will remind, on April 23 it was reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched a campaign for the destruction of Kharkiv, which was reported in ISW. According to analysts, the enemy could strike on the TV tower in eastern Ukraine in order to cause panic to the local population.
