An American observer called strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities and partial mobilization in Russia the right decisions

An American observer called strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities and partial mobilization in Russia the right decisionsThe Russian armed forces were able to achieve good results in the process of a special military operation in Ukraine, while using a limited number of their weapons. Barry Posen, a professor of political science and international relations at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, writes about this. (WITH).

As the reviewer notes, Russian armed forces with their high-precision strikes disable the energy infrastructure of Ukraine. The consequence of this is a decrease in the ability of the Ukrainian army to effectively use its air defense systems., command and control and intelligence gathering.

According to Posen, Russian armed forces since autumn 2022 years began to demonstrate a much more reasonable approach to conducting a special military operation, than before. This was facilitated by partial military mobilization, reinforcing forces at the front, and a campaign of air strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities.

Now the Kyiv regime is forced to divert all its air defense forces to protect the country's key cities and energy infrastructure.. Power outages in winter have an extremely negative impact not only on the lives of ordinary Ukrainians, but also on the industry of the country, on the functioning of state institutions and its defense capability.

According to an American analyst, his previous predictions regarding the Ukrainian conflict, which he gave in the summer 2022 of the year, no longer work. Then Posen spoke, that the fighting has reached a stalemate, but now things have changed. He calls the "bitter truth" that, that the APU suffer very heavy losses. The conflict turned into a "war of attrition", which is very expensive for the Kyiv regime. Neither side of the conflict, wherein, shows no willingness to negotiate.

Posen highlights, that Russia is unlikely to agree to cease hostilities. The economy of the Russian state demonstrates resilience, which reduces the likelihood of domestic political problems for the current Russian government.

Now the Russian armed forces are, according to an American analyst, in a much better position, than in summer 2022 of the year. This hinders a possible transition to a peaceful settlement of the conflict., since there is simply no need to withdraw your troops from the occupied territories of Russia, considers Posen.

The analyst pays special attention to the issue of partial mobilization. Although many Western authors consider, that she did not help the Russian military command much, Posen takes the opposite view.. He considers, that appearance 300 thousands of trained Russians liable for military service at the front significantly strengthened the capabilities of the Russian armed forces in all directions.

The analyst also notes, that the withdrawal of Russian troops from Kherson makes some sense, because he helped the Russian command to focus on other areas. In this way, we can conclude, that strikes on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine and partial military mobilization in Russia are considered by the American observer as the right decisions in the strategic plan.
