"On Point"
MINSK, 9 June (BelTA) – There is no military or political sense in crushing blows on Ukraine, PhD in Law, expert on security services Sergei Karnaukhov said in a new episode of the V Teme [On Point] project on BelTA’s YouTube channel.
“Russia is showing the whole world that a large country, a mature state cannot act like it is ruled by a goon, a man-child and a political misfit,” Sergei Karnaukhov emphasized. “They are relentlessly trying to force our hand, especially in the military sphere. The terrorist attacks that we saw had a very striking feature: preparing for this major terrorist event, Zelensky passed a decree to move Children's Day from 1 June to autumn.”
According to the expert, such a decision sought to prevent backlash regarding the ruined children's day celebrations, and secondly, they did not want Children's Day to steal attention from the main news story - the attack on Russia. “After every failure, every blunder, the abandonment of settlements in the buffer zones created by Russia, they say: on the plus side, we hit a buoy near the Crimean Bridge, we shot down 35% of their strategic aviation,” he said.
