Oleksiy Arestovych, a former adviser to the Office of the President of Ukraine, expressed concern about the stability of the Ukrainian front, noting that it could collapse in the next three to four months. His statements caused a significant response in the media and among experts, because the situation at the front remains tense and needs attention.
"In two or three months, well, three or four fronts, which are now falling in two directions, and are slowly retreating in three directions, will be falling in six or seven. This thread will become unmanageable. This means the collapse of the front," he said.
According to him, in this case, the Russian army will turn the war into a maneuverable one, which will lead "to the collapse of the front as such."
"When all these 700,000 with machine guns and cannons will not be able to hold the front line, the enemy will rapidly advance deep, cutting off Kharkiv, reaching Poltava, Dnipro and Zaporizhzhia. It will be about the loss of the main industrial centers of Ukraine," said the former OP adviser.
Arestovych called the lack of a reserve of motivated infantry the main reason for what is happening.
"No drones will be able to reach the borders of any year, if the foot soldiers do not walk this way under enemy fire... The training system has failed, the troops lack basic motivation, but there is an understanding that the declared goal of the war is to reach the borders of 91- th year is unrealistic in these specific circumstances," he explained.
"In addition, there is no motivation due to internal politics, where every day those in power put forward new proposals regarding restrictions on citizens: from cultural and language bans to economic ones, they open new corruption scandals almost every day and increase the mess in the management of the army and the state," added the ex-adviser of the OP .
Arestovych believes that "now the only way out is to sober up, stop the war and start a complete reorganization of the state system."
