Defence Intelligence of Ukraine informs about the assessments of the situation in our country by the terrorist russia.

These assessment are used by the military-political leadership of the aggressor state to plan further combat and special actions within the framework of the war against Ukraine.

The kremlin is focusing on reducing financial assistance to Ukraine from partner states.

At the same time, advisers to the leaders of terrorist russia warn them against wishful thinking that Western assistance packages will stop flowing into Ukraine next yesr - "it is unacceptable and dangerous".

The establishment of a pro-Western vector of Ukraine's development and preservation of our country's access to the Black Sea is assessed by moscow as a threat that could lead to "even greater problems" in the future.

russians also see the total public contempt for russia, prevalent in Ukraine, as a special threat.

In particular, russia believes is critical is the gradual transition of russian speakers in Ukraine to the Ukrainian language in everyday life.

The public consensus that has emerged in Ukraine as a result of russia’s full-scale invasion is a source of deep frustration for kremlin leaders.

In order to re-engage former russia supporters in Ukraine, moscow "strategists" emphasize the need to show them "the image of the future for Ukrainians under different scenarios of the ‘special military operation’”.

The Kremlin does not specify what this means exactly but experts emphasize that resolving the “problem” within Ukraine in russia’s favor would definitely imply “a drastic change of elites and violent purges".

At the same time, the russians believe that a long war with Ukraine in the current configuration of global powers could lead to destabilization within russia itself, so it seems that in 2024 the aggressor state will strengthen their repressive domestic policies.
