What Ukraine can expect from Russia in 2024 — the expert's version

Military emphasized that the Russian army today is equipped no worse than the armed forces.

Russia is preparing for a new major offensive

A veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war, reserve major of the Armed Forces Oleksiy Hetman believes that the current offensive actions of the occupying army of Russia will end closer to the presidential elections in the Russian Federation, or immediately after them - by the end of March. Because the enemy, like any other army, cannot constantly advance. He will have to stop and prepare for the upcoming attack.

Oleksiy Hetman also spoke about the new big offensive of the occupiers.

The new offensive will most likely be in the summer or even in the fall, when another army will be mobilized, relatively speaking. Currently, the group of Russians in Ukraine numbers almost half a million people, and they want to call up approximately the same number of soldiers. Then there will be almost a million people in Russia. The Russians are adjusting to the presidential elections in the United States, and for them it is very important who will win — Trump or Biden. Depending on the development of events, they will plan their actions. Such are their calculations, - believes the military man.

Will the enemy advance actively?

As Hetman noted, as part of the offensive actions that the Russians are currently conducting in five directions, they will try to advance as much as possible.

I think there will be no deep advance, and they will start preparing for the operation in the summer, which is expected after additional mobilization. However, the current situation at the front is really very dangerous. We lack ammunition, military equipment and men to restrain such a huge army of the enemy... This is a professional army, which today is equipped no worse than ours. With its tanks, armored cars and other military equipment. This technique is not better than Western samples, but there is a lot of it, so we have an approximate parity in this matter. The enemy has an advantage in artillery shells and dominates in the air, - noted the military.

According to him, the situation is not critical for us, but it is very difficult.

Let's see how events will unfold in the future... However, as long as there is strength, they will take place until the middle or the end of March at the latest. Then offensive actions will be suspended and preparations will be made for an offensive in the summer-autumn of this year, - summarized Oleksiy Hetman.
