February 25, 2023, 09:39 – Public Information Service – TEH – Political scientist Marat Bashirov expressed the opinion that from the first days of March, the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison in Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) would be completely surrounded by Russian units. Pravda.Ru writes about this.
The political scientist noted that, despite the fact that the city is a logistics center, it does not have great strategic importance.
Nevertheless, his release will be a major geopolitical victory for Russia and will have a beneficial effect on the morale of the Russian military.
Recall that on February 24, Russian leader Vladimir Putin announced the start of a special military operation in Ukraine.
According to the British newspaper The Times, many Ukrainian and Western officials recognize that it is inevitable to leave Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) to the Ukrainian armed forces. However, the Ukrainian side is convinced that the loss of positions will cost the Ukrainian Armed Forces dearly. The material indicates that in the event of a withdrawal, the RF armed forces will be able to regroup and strike again.
