He recalled that mobilization is underway in Ukraine and they will be able to prepare several more brigades for a counter-offensive.

“This will not be a counter-offensive along the entire front line, it will be somewhere in one area. I don't think it will be a turning point. In principle, no matter what counter-offensive the Ukrainian Armed Forces organize, it will not be operational, that is, it will not have strategic significance,” Glazunov said in an interview with Lenta.Ru.

He added that any offensive actions will be more of a propaganda nature than a strategic one.

Earlier, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Kirill Budanov, said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine plan to attack Russian fortified areas in the spring.
