The ATU zone is a lesser headache of Ukraine in case of development of Russian aggression.
This was stated by the coordinator of the group "Information Resistance", People's Deputy Dmitry Tymchuk, reports "Apostrophe".
"As for the situation in the border areas of the Russian Federation near our state borders, then, I will tell you, at the General Staff, at least those sensible officers and generals with whom I spoke, believe that the ATU zone is still our lesser headache in Plan for the development of Russian aggression, "he said..
According to him, a much bigger problem arose on the border of Ukraine with Russia north of Donbass, since on that side there is concentration, new army divisions of the Russian Federation are being formed.
"It is actually about two armies. Plus, one army is now being formed in the Crimea - the 22nd Combined-Arms Army, at the expense of the forces and means that the invaders are already transferring for three years. Accordingly, on three sides - from the south, east and northeast - we have three Russian armies opposed. And if in the Donbas we have concentrated the most combat-ready component of the ground forces, then in other eastern regions the situation is much worse, "the expert said..
The issue of this threat has already been raised at the parliamentary defense committee "for a long time," he says..
"The Ministry of Defense reports on the establishment of not only new divisions, but also new brigades, new separate battalions. But we need to understand that to form a brigade and completely ensure its place of deployment from scratch is quite problematic.
It is necessary, after all, not only to build several barracks, a parade ground - and forward. A complete infrastructure should be created: with boiler houses, communication centers and so on. Plus - military towns, and to them - kindergartens, schools, shops. In any case, these costs now, during the war, our budget simply can not stand, "- explained the People's Deputy.
As reported by the "Observer", US intelligence gave a forecast when the war in Ukraine will end.
