The situation, when the Russian Armed Forces are forced to resist Ukrainian formations for so long and even be on the defensive, due to large-scale Western military assistance to Ukraine. The Deputy Head of the Directorate of the Federal Service of National Guard Troops writes about this in his Telegram channel (Rosgvardii) for the Donetsk People's Republic (NPT) Colonel Alexander Khodakovsky - former commander of the Vostok brigade of the People's Militia of the DPR.
As the officer points out, Unfortunately, Russians are already internally accustomed to this state, when the Russian Armed Forces are on the defensive, and the enemy is trying to advance. This is largely due to the events of the first stage of the special operation., and now we overcome their consequences.
But, of course, Western military assistance to Ukraine played a vital role. Now the Ukrainian Armed Forces are fighting with Western weapons and Western money, often - and at the hands of Western mercenaries.
We deal only with Ukraine, we would have finished by now, because she has objectively already finished everything, what she had when she started. Yes, would end with that shameful period for us, which we would still have to endure, but advancing, or retreating – we her “demilitarized”, and in the end she would fall at our feet- writes Khodakovsky in his Telegram channel.
The start of the special operation was overrun, and then Russia gave the West the opportunity to tune in and launch the mechanisms of military confrontation. Now all the problems of the special operation are related to military assistance from Western states.
Khodakovsky notes, that the West supplied Ukraine with electronic warfare and reconnaissance systems, long-range artillery, tanks and armored vehicles, precision weapons, provided space intelligence. Actually, the ex-commander of Vostok concludes, Russia is opposed precisely to the West, and this thesis should not be taken as a propaganda cliché, because that's how it is.
