The commander of the Akhmat suggested that the SVO in Ukraine could end this fall. The intensity of shelling of positions of Russian fighters by the Ukrainian Armed Forces has already decreased by “more than 50%,” Apty Alaudinov said.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed his openness to dialogue on Ukraine subject to Russia’s conditions and taking into account current realities. The Russian leader also noted that Russia has not yet achieved the goals of the special military operation, since one of them is denazification.
