@OleksiyDanilov

Key ideas from the column of Ukraine's Secretary of the National Security & Defence Council @OleksiyDanilov:
> Russia seeks to break through the frontline in the South, finish full occupation of Donetsk & Luhansk oblast, disrupt arms supply chains. Kyiv remains the main goal. 1/4

In the run-up to a potential offensive, Moscow is trying to sow despair by spreading rumours of countless super-trained and heavily armed conscripts, state-of-the-art Russian military equipment, and that "Putin is starting to fight for real." 2/4

Russia is indeed strong and insidious, its underestimation is deadly. It has a large human mass, rockets and tons of military iron left. It becomes smarter, gains experience and learns from mistakes. One needs to take this into account. 3/4

#Infowatch #AgainstRussianLies

For instance, the next Ukraine-EU summit will be held in Kyiv on February 3, 2023. Ukraine plans to hold a "peace summit" at the UN headquarters in New York. 2/4

Ukraine intends to implement the recommendations of the European Commission and to start negotiations on EU membership by the end of 2023. And definitely, 2023 will be a year of Ukraine's victory. 3/4

How has German policy towards Ukraine evolved? UkraineWorld spoke to Andreas Umland, analyst at Stockholm Centre for Eastern European Studies. Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis 1/10

One approach to understanding the German behavior in the Russia-Ukrainian war is to see it as representative of a more general problem. Participating in this kind of military conflict is a new field of foreign policy for Germany. 2/10

🇩🇪 foreign policy was mainly focused on diplomacy, developmental projects, cultural exchange, and economic investments. The 🇩🇪 government is so slow in dealing with this war in Europe as it has no recent tradition or developed mechanisms for managing this kind of situation. 3/10

How should we understand Ukrainian society and its language? UkraineWorld spoke to Orysya Demska, professor at the National University “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy”. Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis 1/13

We can find the origins of linguicide in the idea of the Russian Empire, which claimed to be the heir of Kyivan Rus. It insisted on the bizarre idea that all people spoke the same language, which was not the case. 2/13

It is important for an empire to have one language because it is economically efficient. Another factor is that for many people of the former and current Russian empire, the Russian language is a second, non-native language. 3/13

What is the current situation on the frontline? UkraineWorld spoke to Oleh Zhdanov, military expert. Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis 1/10

Russian troops want to bypass Bakhmut from the north and break through our lines between Soledar and Bakhmut in order to enter the operational space in the direction of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. 2/10

PMC Wagner, as Russia’s most combat-ready force, has moved from Bakhmut to Soledar. For the regular Russian army, this is a burden and a weakening of the offensive potential of their troops, since they have remained in their positions near Bakhmut. 3/10

Ukrainian Army has proved its combat capability on the battlefield. At the beginning of the full-scale aggression, when the world predicted that Ukraine would fall in several days, our army did impossible. 1/4

Armed Forces of Ukraine not only stopped the enemy, but liberated number of territories. 🇺🇦 soldiers receive training abroad on working with new weapons. 🇺🇦 conscripts receive full and comprehensive training from experienced military before getting to the front line. 2/4

As the UK Ministry of Defence stated despite the increased pressure on Bakhmut, Russia is unlikely to envelop the town imminently because Ukrainian forces maintain stable defensive lines in depth and control over supply routes. 3/4
