Ukraine named two possible turning points of the war

If in Russia will be mobilized, it will be a turning point of the war not in favor of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said Secretary of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Defense Committee Roman Kostenko.

"If they announce the mobilization of 300, 400, 500 thousand people there, this will be a turning point in this war. And definitely not in our favor," said the MP.

The second turning point, he said, is the likely use of The Russian Federation has tactical nuclear weapons at the front. He believes that the adoption of such a decision in Moscow is "quite realistic."

According to Kostenko, tactical nuclear weapons are necessary to break through the front line of defense and get troops into operational space. According to him, TNW can cause damage with an area of "5 × 5 or 10× 10 km", which will be enough to introduce enemy troops into a breakthrough. He said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine should build defenses on the assumption that such weapons can be used.
