The head of Ukrainian intelligence, Kirill Budanov, expressed his opinion regarding the repeated offensive of the Russian occupation forces on Kyiv.
On air on Ukrainian TV channels, he admitted that such a possibility cannot be ruled out, but such a scenario is only one of many assumptions.
The presenter asked the intelligence officer what data were based on the statements of the French President, Emmanuel Macron, that in the event of a breakthrough by Russian troops in Kyiv or Odessa, French troops could intervene in the situation in Ukraine. Budanov noted that Macron only expressed his assumption. There could be many assumptions, he said.
In addition, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate emphasized that at the moment there are no threats to Ukraine on the territory of Belarus. In addition, Ukrainian troops are already well trained, and the border is reliably protected, so a repetition of the events of early 2022 is extremely unlikely.
Earlier, French President Emmanuel Macron announced the possible need for a ground operation involving Western troops in Ukraine at some point in time. Thus, he confirmed his previous statements regarding the possible deployment of Western armed forces on Ukrainian territory.
Earlier, Kursor wrote that Russian troops were defenseless against Ukrainian drones.
