retired colonel of the british army glory to ukraine dear mr. colonel gatsave the king god save the king and heroes glory to them it is now very necessary well, dear mr. colonel , powerful counteroffensive actions of the armed forces of ukraine have begun in the south of our country, how important is this direction and in general. how do you assess the degree of readiness of our fighters to take sub-air control of the south? first of all, this is a strategic question and the answer depends on the progress on the battlefield, because if the ukrainian forces manage to break through in the south and possibly reach melitopol, or even better, berdyansk, then of course it is will be a powerful achievement. if they do not succeed in this, then questions will arise. was it worth resorting to attacks in this direction, because we know that this is the most fortified and mined front

area, however, i think that your fighters will cope there is no doubt that they will break through the defensive echelons, but how much will they need for this and what losses will there be on the way. it is one thing if the plan succeeds , on the other hand, is such a success worth the depletion of resources, because if the losses are too great, then from a strategic point of view such success can be a defeat so we must keep an eye on the events of the next few weeks berdyansk direction tokmak direction and further down the list there are fierce battles going on there our infantry is working our artillery is working we lack aviation but the troops are advancing the enemy as far as i understand it is starting to use operational reserves to try to hold its line of defense as far as this company is going to be difficult if we are talking about the august september southern company the probability is quite high as the ukrainian soldiers have the determination and morale

to keep fighting hard the challenge for russia is whether it can allow ourselves to continue to advance in the donetsk direction, because that is where they persistently advance, and not in the southern regions. we know that they have a very bad logistical support and ukraine conducted a very successful campaign to destroy russian artillery and ammunition, which we do not know and i do not think that anyone in principle can know this. so this is where the enemy's weakness in terms of artillery and ammunition is located . it may be in front of donetsk or it may be behind bahmut, and even south of zaporozhye, there will be a place where russia will suddenly not be able to fight properly. it is there that a real strategic breakthrough should take place, and therefore, looking to the south, i have question what is happening in the donetsk region when the ukrainian troops are advancing, what will happen if they break

into donetsk, are there still about 30,000 armed forces who can enter donetsk and take it, this is an interesting question at the moment because the battlefield is not fully understood. maybe it will be liman or it will be bakhmut. is it donetsk? is it zaporizhzhia and the south. and only in the next two or three weeks or during the next month will it be clear where in fact ukraine can cause the most damage to amateurs very often are starting to draw certain arrows on the maps trying to figure out what movement can be considered general but informed people are talking about the importance of logistics glen you just emphasized the importance of interrupting enemy logistics a couple of days ago i was talking to one of our officers in action and he said what a difference what depth they dug concrete pits in the south if we destroy their logistics they can eat each other in the next couple of months destroyed logistics is a lack of fuel is

a lack of ammunition and is a lack the possibilities of the functioning of units that have really dug in very deeply. well, accordingly, if we are seriously talking about the destruction of enemy logistics, we understand that on the one hand it is the crimean bridge, on the other hand it is the taking under fire control of the so-called land corridor from mariupol to, well, and of course the interruption communications through the crimean passes, the destruction of logistics is important, but when hostilities are unfolding as they are now, the most important thing is not so much strategic logistics as tactical, in other words, what exactly is this is important because weapons that are at hand or immediately behind their backs are more important than those weapons or ammunition that are at a distance, and they know this because

it is necessary to break their morale and their will as much as possible, to concentrate ukrainian forces in front of certain borders and then destroy the logistics behind these lines so that they feel an immediate shortage; if you concentrate on strategic logistics , it gives the enemy time to move from one part of the battlefield to another. if you attack tactical logistics, that is, food which today they planned to eat the water they planned to drink today the ammunition they were supposed to use today will have a special effect on a specific part of the battlefield, so i believe that in the last six months we have done a lot in the field of strategic logistics but russia continues to advance and we need to support the soldiers on the front lines our advanced infantry, concentrating on those areas that are immediately behind the infantry in order to reduce the fire concentration of the enemy so that he does not have either artillery or ammunition

to return fire - this is the key to a breakthrough if we are talking about the power of the enemy, not the south, we understand that they have certain problems , but they also have certain advantages , in particular. further , a large number of aviation, a large number of artillery, on the other hand, we understand that the key task, for sure, now is to split the southern group of the enemy, i want to say that russia always has the potential to attract resources in this war of both human and armed forces, the only thing that can break the south is the full deployment of the front line, and by this i mean that as soon as ukraine breaks through somewhere and finds itself in the rear of the enemy, the russians will begin to flee, that is , the most important thing is to break through, create a certain gap in the defense and effectively use it to encircle the russians

, however, it can be a very long battle. that difficult battle up to berdyansk . the russian defense may not crack so easily, so i don't think you should set any time frames for yourself. to admit that the front must be supported as best as possible, which means that obviously we need more drones, more equipment, more carats of ambulances, everything that the fighters need to continue moving forward , because this war can last another 2-3 years, do not underestimate the ability of russia to throw all its resources into the war we must be prepared for a long battle and for this breakthrough to take a long period now there is a constant movement forward kilometer by kilometer and that is why you must adhere to the principles of war one of which is concentration of forces, which is vitally necessary. if you want to break through, dear mr. colonel, in your opinion, it should be considered as separate fronts, i do not know the battlefields -

this is the kupinsky lyman direction, the donetsk direction, and the southern direction, in particular, when it comes to the enemy's strategy. they are trying to play on three local directions - his own , does gerasimo still have the strength to somehow concentrate all this and bring it to the general logic of the military campaign is a broad question because they have concentrated their efforts on bahmut, however, without success, so i would say that they will not do the same thing again. although they can, this is russia, and it is quite possible that they will go and step on the same rake again. actions, because when it is as wide as possible, it forces ukraine to think very carefully about attracting reserves because there is always a place where russia will advance, now this is a matter for the general staff and they should keep themselves in their hands because it

is quite possible that in the area of ​​the estuary or even to the north of donetsk, russia can break through and start actually moving forward, this does not mean that they will be able to actively move forward, they will rather use the gaps that ukraine has at the moment, ukraine cannot currently cover the entire front by moving south. and this is exactly what russia is taking into account, which wants to create pressure in the north to force ukraine to pull reserves to the north to the estuary , taking them from the south, all this is like poker and now it is important who blinks first in the kupinsky-leman direction, we understand that the enemy there can get along well with logistics, it is convenient to transport personnel ammunition there, and so on, and we understand that the fighting there is intensifying, it is difficult to say how high the intensity will be in the next couple of weeks, but we understand that the enemy is transferring a large number of trained

troops there, and i think that now russia is trying to change the phase of hostilities in the fact that ukraine has shown itself well in the south, so now it must continue to advance there, because if they break through the south, it will not matter what happens in the north, because the most important trophies in this battle are donetsk crimea, we must continue to advance in these directions, the liberation of donetsk and crimea will change the dynamics of politics and strategic thinking inside russia what is an estuary, no one in russia knows where the estuary is and they are not interested in it, but they know where crimea and donetsk are located, so if they lose them, the politics in russia will change. putin will not be able to survive the loss of something so important. we now understand that russia is now trying to commit another

crime not only against ukraine, but also against of international maritime law, in particular, it is about russia's attempt to annex the black sea basin, in particular that which belongs to ukraine, accordingly we see intensified strikes on odesa in the south of ukraine, but the reason for everything can be intertwined in the general concept of russian aggression in the black sea basin, so ukraine nato was convened and we understand that they have to go extremely serious steps in response, first of all, you need to forget about international law in such a war as this international law does not exist, russia has already violated all international laws regarding the war is why they are not interested and it does not matter to them whether they violate something, the facts speak for themselves it seems that the west does not care where the laws are followed and where no , because they did nothing before. remember how russia installed mines in the black sea, which then fell into the romanian in harbors, russia has stopped nato ships before, for example from bulgaria, and no one did anything, so let's forget about the legal aspect of this issue

for the second time. i don't see anything extraordinary or special in this. the fact is that russia is trying to attack ukraine in all possible ways, and where there is a weak point, they will attack, and the weak point is because there is no ukrainian fleet now, and because they have the opportunity to put pressure on ukraine in the south regarding moldova and transnistria , while keeping ukraine in tune with midnight, due to the presence of wagner, in this way actually moves the pieces on the chessboard to a position that is beneficial for itself to a position that causes ukraine as many problems as possible, but we do not forget that almost every act against ukraine is part of the internal russian essence and many what they are doing is intended to show that putin is still an authoritative person, that he can still put pressure not only on ukraine, but also on nato, considering how he is putting pressure on

nato and nato countries in the baltic sea. and he thinks that he is doing correctly pressing romania, bulgaria and turkey in black, this is a certain rise for him in the eyes of his people, an indicator that he still remains a tough person and can do what he wants, the transfer of wagner's criminal organization to belarus. so we understand that currently their personnel it is not enough, but we are watching how belarus is gradually being filled with russian mercenaries, it is gradually being filled with russian equipment, we understand that this group is not enough to mount this or that military provocation successfully against ukraine , instead they can try to destabilize the border with lithuania and poland, and they will formally act as an extraterritorial military-criminal group and they will not represent the official government of belarus or possibly

russia. so the key story here is how they react the euro-atlantic allies in the event of this or that military provocation, first of all regarding the wagnerites we must forget everything that happened before because it was a theater, it was just a theater, a kind of games and none of us really knows the scale of these games and who actually took part in them participation, we just have to understand where they are currently stationed , and therefore the fact that their grouping is not that big, although there are not many of them, russia is strengthening them, which means that they are going to use someone for something. we have no idea for what is possible, even strengthening them in the future to defend putin in this is the whole absurdity of the current russian policy, but do not forget that wagner's group threatens not only northern ukraine, it also threatens poland and lithuania and even latvia, which is nearby . therefore, they are a potential threat in

the military plan, even without doing anything they are in fact a problem for both nato and ukraine, simply because of their dislocation, they really don't need to stress, you asked about what nato will do, so let's clarify if the wagnerites cross the border nato they get in the teeth, and very quickly, and then the game will be completely different. nato cannot allow the wagnerites to cross the polish -lithuanian or any other border and not get anything for it. that the russians, putin and prigozhin, understand this well. if they dare to do so , they will sign their own death sentence, i do not think that they are preparing her for this, unless there are some mega-extreme scenarios, at the same time they are being reinforced for something and most likely something is being planned in ukraine, the war criminal kartapolov, who sits in the russian state duma, a couple of days ago released

the state secret of the russian federation in response to the proposed changes to the mobilization orders in russia. he said, of course, we will do it because we are preparing for a long war. as you can see mr. colonel, russia's preparation for this phase and whether they will really go for it , their preparation is quite powerful. i mean that they are working on their own defense industry on mobilizing a larger number of people as well as their relations with north korea, china and iran, they are working hard to create a stronger soviet system, the term soviet , not russian soviet system, which can actually fight against ukraine for a long time and will be able to destroy ukraine step by step using massive resources is what they are doing it now and their intention is to continue doing it until the west

surrenders i am convinced that putin thinks that if he continues for years the west will fall and will fall apart and a peace agreement will be concluded that will secure the captured territories for it, the ukrainian government is making a serious mistake by underestimating russia's stubbornness in this war, not preparing properly, not mobilizing properly, not properly organizing its defense industry, this is exactly what russia is doing now, while ukraine is not, this is a very serious mistake to rely only on the allies because at a certain stage the allies will run out of equipment, ammunition and everything else and then ukraine will be left alone and they will expect it to do much more itself, so the country needs to prepare for the fact that this war can last two, three, even four years, let's remember the second world war lasted five, the first world war also almost

five years. the supply of storm shadow to ukraine, we understand how important these long-range missiles have turned out to be, of course there will be a decrease because as you use them, they become less and less, currently the industry in general cannot produce more or at the same rate that they will be used, therefore, the provision of such missiles will be reduced, ukraine must understand the importance of manufacturing its own missiles, it is necessary to direct its efforts to the production of its own shadow sides and do it quickly, and for this ukraine has a real intellectual potential, it is a matter of the will of the government and, frankly, someone intelligent who will lead ukroboronprom and will begin to do what ukraine needs. so thank you, dear glen , for this frank conversation on the embroidered tv channel espresso get save the king glory to ukraine

glory to the heroes and i also want to emphasize how wonderfully ukrainian soldiers are fighting in the south, what a wonderful job they are doing, they deserve the respect of every army in the world for the way they fight and i hope that they will not stop and that the breakthrough will happen as soon as possible. thank you to our viewers i would like to remind you that now espresso has a retired colonel of the british army working for them, a well-known military expert, glen grant, the program participants have run out , it remains with tv channels from the press. my colleagues will promptly analyze all the most important events of the day, take care of yourself and your loved ones. see you on the air. discounts on tempalgin tablets 20% in pharmacies. traveller, you and oschad. i'm back. i miss you, but not
