Instead, Russia's military dripping is aimed at weakening the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The British Ministry of Defense believes that the Russian Federation expects that its advantages in population and resources will deplete Ukraine. In British intelligence, they told how the Kremlin has changed its priorities in confrontation with Ukraine since 2014. The main goal of Russia has always remained unchanged - the control of its neighbor.
In 2014-2021, Moscow sought this through subversive activity and incitement of an unannounced war in the Donbass and annexation of Crimea. On February 24, 2022, the Kremlin has moved to a new approach - Russia launched a full -scale invasion to capture the whole country and overthrow its government. However, until April last year, Russia realized that this plan was not destined to come true, and focused on the expansion and formalization of its reign in the Donbass and the south of the country.
According to the British military, in this the Russian Federation has made slow and extremely expensive progress. We will remind, according to the report of the Institute of War Study (ISW), published on February 23, Russia creates the conditions for conducting provocations on the border with the Chernihiv region and in Moldova. Analysts are convinced that the Kremlin bows Belarus to participate in the war against Ukraine.
