The Ukrainian military has stepped up its alarm over the possibility of new missile strikes targeting infrastructure facilities across the country from Russia in the near future.
On the other hand, the British Ministry of Defense has indicated that the Russian military has not achieved the expected effect due to lack of missiles.
As severe cold weather continues in Ukraine, the Russian military has repeatedly launched large-scale missile attacks across the country, causing serious power shortages in the capital Kyiv and other parts of the country.
The Ukrainian side pointed out that Russian naval vessels deployed in the Black Sea were preparing new missile strikes, and a senior Ukrainian military official said on the 1st that there is a possibility that enemy countries will launch missile attacks on important infrastructure facilities in the near future. Yes," he warned.
The British Ministry of Defense said on the 1st that the attack on infrastructure facilities by the Russian military was in line with Russia's basic security principle "military doctrine".
In its "military doctrine," Russia envisions attacks on infrastructure to demoralize the people of the other country and eventually force its leaders to surrender.
On the other hand, the British Ministry of Defense analyzes that while the Russian military has already depleted most of the missiles suitable for attacking infrastructure, the Ukrainian side has succeeded in mobilizing the population and has little psychological impact such as a drop in morale. However, the Russian military has expressed the view that its attacks so far have not achieved the expected effect.
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov justifies missile attack again
Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov held a press conference in the capital Moscow on the 1st and justified it again by claiming that the missile attack by the Russian military targeted infrastructure facilities related to the Ukrainian army.
On the other hand, regarding dialogue with the United States in the area of security, he said, "It is impossible to discuss strategic stability while ignoring everything that is happening in Ukraine." It seems that he showed his intention to seek dialogue.
On the other hand, the United States has said it will not negotiate a ceasefire with Russia without Ukraine.
