Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Korrespondent] The Kremlin will pose a serious threat to the West even after the end of the war against Ukraine, they believe in Prague. The West must be prepared for the fact that Russia's war against Ukraine will continue for a long time. Moreover, even after the end of the war, the Russian Federation will pose a danger to Europe. This was announced on Wednesday, September 13, by the head of the General Staff of the Czech Republic, Karel Rzheka, writes Reuters . “The Kremlin will act less and less predictably and will remain a serious threat to the West even after it is defeated in Ukraine,” he said. In his opinion, given the current situation at the front, “in the near future, neither side will be able to achieve their stated goals.” Commenting on the Ukrainian counter-offensive, the Czech military officer emphasized that he was not disappointed with its pace, despite the existence of opposing assessments. "This is what a military offensive looks like. It's not like in a World War II movie. It takes time," he said. Rzheka emphasized that the Czech Republic, given its small size, provided significant assistance to Ukraine and noted that the allies should continue to help Kyiv. "It is important that we continue to support the Ukrainians for a long time. We are looking at our reserves, plans and concepts and trying to determine what else we can provide. We still have some, including heavy equipment," he added. |
