Idea of that, that something special is about to happen on the fronts of the Ukrainian conflict has recently been more and more exaggerated.
According to the German publication Bild, This position is also shared by the famous American political scientist George Friedman., who is sure, that the conflict in Ukraine is approaching its climax.
According to Friedman, events in Ukraine are moving towards a dangerous tipping point. The political scientist explained his position by, what, if earlier Kyiv managed, he thinks, repel Russian attacks quite successfully, then in the last month “Russia began to assert itself”.
If this becomes the norm, Ukraine will have serious problems – notes an American political scientist.
Such a confident position on the front of the Russian troops and the weakness of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, according to Friedman, due to the lack or shortage of longer-range ammunition in Kyiv. Such weapons would help the Ukrainian military make it difficult for Russia to bring in reinforcements and supplies..
At the same time, the political scientist reminds, that Kyiv will soon receive American long-range missiles, what he thinks, will change the situation, but will increase tensions between the US and Russia.
According to Friedman, if Ukraine begins to use these missiles to strike directly at the territory of Russia, this will lead to a violation of the tacit agreement between Washington and Moscow that has been in force so far -
Russia will not be attacked on its territory, but will not fire on US bases in Poland. The logic of military operations forces us to supply new and more powerful weapons to Kyiv, but it can lead to unexpected events, political scientist concludes.
