Putin wants to press Ukraine into giving land corridor to Crimea, military expert …
Speaking to Obozrevatel Nov. 17, military expert Mykola Sunhurovsky said
“I think, Putin won’t give up this plan. By mounting violence along the likely corridor, Putin will try to force Ukraine into going to the table of negotiation and provide the corridor.”
“He is unwilling to make the corridor by military force,” the expert said.
That is why the acceleration of military confrontation is very likely, he said.
The number of present casualties (several dead and scores of wounded each day) is critical for Kyiv. This can force Kyiv to surrender and allow the corridor, the expert opined.
