In the coming months, Ukrainians are expected to turn off light, heat, water and gas, although it will most likely not come to a complete blackout. This was stated to the Telegraph by the former Minister of Energy of Ukraine Yuriy Prodan.
It is not necessary to pretend that Ukraine is well prepared for the winter season, he said.
"Unfortunately, we cannot do without forced shutdowns and schedules... we need to prepare for restrictions, interruptions in the supply of water, gas, and light. It was necessary to focus on simpler defense and air defense. And most importantly, do not pretend that we are well prepared. Although it is impossible to protect all facilities and it is impossible to expect that with the number of strikes that Russia is inflicting, there will be no interruptions in heat or electricity supply. I hope that it will not reach a full blackout in the country, but unfortunately there will be a serious situation in the regions," Prodan said, quoted by Strana.
According to the ex-minister, the frontline areas will suffer first of all, "but, as you can see, Kiev is also under the gun."
