Ukraine urged to pause military action amid critical crisis
General Waldemar Skrzypczak suggests that Ukraine must halt its military actions to avoid disaster. Russia is intensifying its attacks, and the situation for the Ukrainian army is critical.
In his analysis on wprost.pl, General Waldemar Skrzypczak highlights that Ukraine is in a deep crisis due to a shortage of manpower. Some brigades have been in continuous combat since the beginning of the war," he notes. The situation is exacerbated by the inability to replenish units and the losses from the failed offensive in Zaporizhzhia in June 2023.
Russia intensifies attacks
Russia has ramped up attacks on Ukrainian forces in the Kursk and Donetsk regions, as confirmed by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Gen. Oleksandr Syrskyi. General Skrzypczak warns that Russia is aiming for a quick end to the war to impose its terms in negotiations. The Kremlin is counting on concessions from Ukraine and the West.
According to Skrzypczak, Russia does not plan to occupy territories west of the Dnieper to avoid the need to maintain occupation forces. "Putin does not want this. He has other strategic goals arising from alliances with Asian countries," the general assesses. Russia aims to draw NATO and the USA into a hybrid war on the European continent.
In light of these challenges, General Skrzypczak emphasizes that the only way to save Ukraine is to halt its military activities.
Meanwhile, General Roman Polko, former commander of GROM, cautions Ukraine against attacking Russian commanders, as such actions could be perceived as violations of international law. "Ukraine must be careful not to be accused of engaging in terrorist activities," Polko points out.
