Ukrainian Major General believes that Russian troops can reach the capital Kiev within 12 hours.

Major General of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Serhiy Krivonos told Pryamov TV channel that the Ukrainian government underestimated the strength of the Russian army. This could lead to serious consequences.

“Military experts, including me, have warned that the Russian army could reach Kiev in 12 hours,” said Major General Krivonos.

According to the Ukrainian military, President Volodymyr Zelensky made a serious mistake in assessing the capabilities of the Russian army, so the situation could still develop according to the worst-case scenario for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

General Krivonos also noted that the Russian army has a significant advantage, thanks to its good equipment and support from the State.

With the serious losses of the Ukrainian army, the psychology of soldiers and people has been disturbed and confused. Advisor to former Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma, Mr. Oleg Soskin, called on President Zelensky to declare a ceasefire to avoid further losses in the counterattack.
