the “Vostok” Battalion fighting in southern Ukraine said on Thursday that
Ukraine will not be defeated and suggested that Russia freeze the war along
current frontlines. > Alexander Khodakovsky made the candid concession yesterday
on his Telegram channel after Russian forces, including his own troops, were
devastatingly defeated by Ukrainian marines earlier this week at Urozhaine in
the Zaporizhzhia-Donetsk regional border area. > “Can we bring down Ukraine
militarily? Now and in the near future, no,” Khodakovsky, a former official of
the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, said yesterday. > “When I talk to
myself about our destiny in this war, I mean that we will not crawl forward,
like the [Ukrainians], turning everything into [destroyed] Bakhmuts in our path.
And, I do not foresee the easy occupation of cities,” he said.
It’s also worth noting that what Khodakovsky is actually saying in his post is that Ukraine is not a stable country, and Russia just has to wait for western support to start drying up.
