This was stated by Vadym Skibitskyi, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, in an interview with Delfi.

“Spring and early summer will be decisive in the war. If a large russia’s offensive, planned for this period, fails this will be downfall of russia and putin,” the representative of Ukraine’s military intelligence said.

According to Vadym Skibitskyi, tough and decisive battles will take place in Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

At the same time, as noted DIU representative, a new attack on Kyiv by the russians through belarus is unlikely, as well as active hostilities in the south of Ukraine, where the Russians are more concerned about the protection of the occupied Crimea.

“When spring and the beginning of summer are behind us, maybe we can start talking about the end of the war. We cannot look far yet, we must pass the first stage — spring and early summer. We see what this war is leading to: the russian military leadership has changed, the first stage of mobilization is over, the russian army is regrouping. Our assessment is simple: the main activity of the russian army will be deployed in the Donetsk and Luhansk directions,” Vadym Skibitskyi said.
