The Armed Forces will go to borders on February 23 by the end of the year, and in the summer they will return Crimea - General Goges

Military expert General Ben Gogeges believes that the war is coming to a new stage, and there are several confirmations. And Ukrainian troops gained such a move that they are no longer stopped. Former commander of US troops in Europe, General Ben Gogess acknowledged that he overestimated the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation until February 24, because he could not imagine how corrupt the Russian Ministry of Defense was.

This, according to Goodges, is one of the main reasons for the failures of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the last two months, reports New Debate. "After the fall of Liman, the cacophony of complaints of Russian generals and other experts went to explain what happened. Explanation of one of the high -ranking retired Russian generals sounded like this: everyone was lied. The lie lasted throughout the chain troops, their location, " - explained Ben Goges.

The General believes that Ukrainian troops gained such a move that they are no longer stopped. There are many examples of lack of motivation from both the Russian military and Russian people. Hundreds of thousands of men of conscript age flee outside the Russian Federation, trying to avoid mobilization.

"I am sure that Ukrainian troops will reject the Russian forces to the borders as of February 23 before the end of this year, and by the middle of the summer of 2023 the Armed Forces will already be controlled by the Crimean Peninsula," Gogess explained. According to the expert, the war is coming to a new stage, and there are several confirmations. "I think there are three events that have taken place in the last few weeks that indicate that we are approaching a new stage of war.

The first is an announcement , deliberately known, of course: the regions are annexed and are already considered part of the Russian Federation, " - explained Goodges. "All these three events indicate that the Kremlin acknowledges that the state of affairs is deteriorating, that they have a real disaster," the researcher said. "The mobilization had to be prepared, instead it was made disorderly <…> Inhabitants of Russia met the news of the beginning of mobilization at all without enthusiasm.

Hundreds of thousands of men did everything that they could not get into the war," he said. No one in the world considers these "referendums" legitimate, no one believes that it was free will. This is a deception, as stated by the UN Secretary General, heads of other international organizations and, importantly, the heads of state. No one recognizes them. But the Kremlin went further and declared these areas part of Russia.

Of course, to justify the mobilization, they say, to protect newly annexed Russian territories. It should be reminded that, according to General Ben Gogeges, during the counter -offensive of Ukraine in the Kherson region, the entire Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation will be in reaching Himars missiles. The Armed Forces missiles will reach Sevastopol.
