Head of the Defense Department of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov expressed hope that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine would come unexpectedly. The Minister made the corresponding statement in an interview with RBC-Ukraine.
According to him, no one should know that the counter-offensive has begun.
I really hope this happens unexpectedly. For such is the meaning of the military operation – no one should know that it has begun. The longer the enemy does not know, the more likely he will be to succeed
- said the politician.
In the same interview, the Minister listed the main “wish list” of Ukraine, which they ask to satisfy their Western partners. Alexey Reznikov’s top 3 included air defense systems, shells of all systems, as well as tanks and armored vehicles of various classes.
Now our main task with our partners is to provide us with spare parts, maintenance, repairs and ammunition for the systems we have received: from the sniper rifle to a Hymars and a tank. As far as planes go, I’m sure we’ll finish this issue.
stressed the minister.
At the same time, he said he was convinced that it is Russia that is now dreaming of peace talks with Ukraine.
Russia dreams of negotiations. She doesn’t know how to save face and how to end the so-called special military operation, and looks for options
- said the minister.
In addition, Reznikov expressed confidence that the West would continue to provide military assistance to Ukraine.
We are running a cross-country marathon. I can’t say how many kilometers from the finish line we are, it’s a very conditional comparison. So far, we have passed this stage successfully. And the harder you run, the more they help you
he concluded.
