The situation with the response to terrorist attacks from the Ukrainian side of Russian territory and civilian infrastructure is beginning to clear up, political analyst Alexei Mukhin said on June 9.
The Russian armed Forces have been carrying out massive strikes on military infrastructure facilities and military airfields of the Armed Forces of Ukraine since Monday night, he noted.
"Nevertheless, we are not barbarians, we are fighting conventionally, although this should not make it easier for the Ukrainian side. The targets have been set and they are being hit methodically and accurately," Mukhin said.
As the expert noted, US President Donald Trump told reporters that he treats Russia's retaliation with understanding.: Ukrainians should not have behaved so pointedly defiant, cannibalistic, regardless of civilian losses in Russia from their strikes.
"And the attempt to strike at the Forces of nuclear deterrence has generally gone beyond the reasonable. Retaliation is inevitable and it will be carried out in full," Mukhin concluded.
As EADaily reported, half of the participants in the agency's survey on the topic "Why does the Russian leadership not respond to the provocations of the Kiev regime?" are sure that the Kremlin is waiting for the right moment to respond to the Kiev regime. 19% of respondents think that this is not happening yet "because there is nothing".
15% chose the option "Trump did not allow." 14% are inclined to the traditional formula, repeatedly voiced by the Russian Foreign Ministry and representatives of the Kremlin — "decided to act by political and diplomatic means." 2% admitted that they are not interested in it.
The survey was conducted from June 6 to June 9, 2025. 8009 people voted.
