"Demonstration of weakness": the Russian Federation wants to undermine the economy of Ukraine because it loses war - NYT

According to the British analyst, Russia wants to harm the economy of Ukraine and get rid of Western sanctions. In the war she was already "stuck. " Russia wants to undermine the Ukrainian economy because it cannot achieve its goals by military means. This was stated by the researcher of the maritime power of the royal institute of the United Services Sidhart Kausal by the New York Times.

According to him, the Russian Federation wants to be released from the sanctions of the West, but not to expand the war with which it is no longer coping. "The main goal of the Russians is to undermine the Ukrainian economy, and if they could do it without a single shot, they would be delighted," the expert said. The publication writes that some analysts believe that large -scale clashes in the Black Sea are unlikely.

"It can be said that this is a demonstration of weakness in the broader strategic sense of the word, it is true? The need to focus on things such as the destruction of the Ukrainian economy, reflects the fact that they (Russians, ed. ) Can not move as they thought," Kausal said. The material states that some experts are also convinced that the Russian Federation uses threats of attacks on commercial shipping to increase insurance premiums.

The Kremlin hopes that financial difficulties will stop the supply of grain and make the West make concessions about some sanctions. We will remind that the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba spoke about the export of grain from Ukraine. He noted that Russia "killed two rabbits with one shot," stating the exit from the "grain agreement". He told why it was profitable for Moscow.
