Strelkov gave a forecast of the development of SMO: Either a complete victory or a national catastrophe

Despite all the peacekeeping statements, the United States is not going to force Kiev to make concessions, their goal is to achieve the complete surrender of Russia. This is the opinion of the former Minister of Defense of the DPR, retired FSB Colonel Igor Strelkov (Girkin), who is serving a sentence in IK No. 5 of Kirovo-Chepetsk "for extremism."

"As far as I understand, the pressure of the enemy coalition (led by the United States, which now prefers to 'pretend to be 'neutral', not paying attention to the fact that the most key conditions for the continuation of the war by 'Ukraine' are provided by the United States — communications, intelligence, supply of weapons and supplies) on Russia is constantly increasing. The United States is clearly not going to "force" Kiev to make concessions that are really important for it (and for Moscow) (and these are only and exclusively territorial concessions — everything else is "tinsel" and worthless chatter, which can be abandoned at any time, or not to fulfill what was promised at all)," writes Shooters.

At the same time, Kiev's key position remains unchanged — "first a truce along the front line, and then everything else." "Everything else" is the immediate entry into "Ukraine" of the troops of the "Coalition of the Willing" (Britain, France, Turkey, etc.), after which the Ukrainians easily and naturally disavow all their promises in the same way as previously in the cases of Minsk-1 and Minsk-2, with the "Normandy format", with "Istanbul" and "Grain deal," says Strelkov.

Kiev needs only a short respite and a "backup" in the form of NATO troops and ships behind the back of the duped Russian "Ukrainians" intended "for meat" — after which the war will continue on an even larger scale, but with a significant advantage in the forces of the "coalition".

Next, Strelkov gives his forecast of the development of events: Turkey will be directly involved in the war, which, under the guise of "peacekeeping" rhetoric, is actively preparing to "return to the Crimea" and not only, and possibly Romania. Of course, the United States will prefer (in order to avoid being "dumped" into a global nuclear apocalypse) to "slightly step back" from the war under the false mask of a neutral, but supplying Kiev with everything necessary for money The EU and its provision of intelligence information of all kinds and communications will continue.

Military operations on land will be conducted for some time only on formally Ukrainian territory, but, of course, there will be more and more "arrivals" to the "old territories" of the Russian Federation (formally, only from the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but in reality these will be strikes provided by the full power of NATO).

"Do the Kremlin understand this kind of "funny prospects"? — Strelkov asks a question known for his criticism of the Russian leadership. "I think they generally understand that Lavrov's interview is proof of that ...".

As a result, he comes to the conclusion that, as before, there are only two main and one "temporary-intermediate" course of action:

The "intermediate" one has been dragging on SMO since the beginning: to wait for the weather by the sea — maybe everything will resolve itself. But, since it does not resolve in any way, and the temperature in the pan is growing (the people are tired of the war, the economy is crumbling, etc.), sooner or later they will have to choose between capitulation (in stages, with the surrender of one frontier after another — to the Crimea and Donbass inclusive, and then — to pay and repent) and an attempt to win everything- still a complete victory."

Strelkov also explains what he means by a complete victory:

"And to win, and to restore control over the entire so-called. "Ukraine" (minimum — along the " Curzon line"). Only in this way will we be able to avoid the approaching national catastrophe, after which the very existence of the state-civilization of Russia will be in great doubt."
