Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 30. Dezember 2022
Nachgetragen fürs Archiv: Zum andauernden russischen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine der Sammler am 30. Dezember 2022:
• Angesichts der andauernden russischen Luftangriffe gegen die zivile Infrastruktur der Ukraine – nach russischer Lesart: gegen Einrichtungen, die für die Streitkräfte bedeutsam sind – hat der ukrainische Präsident Wolodymyr Selenskyj für das neue Jahr die Bedeutung eines weiteren Ausbaus der Luftverteidigung herausgestellt. Aus seiner Videoansprache am Freitag:
This year, we not only maintained our air defenses, but we made them stronger than ever. But in the new year Ukrainian air defense will become even stronger, even more effective.
Ukrainian air defense can become the most powerful in Europe, and this will be a guarantee of security not only for our country, but also for the entire continent.
• Das britische Intel Update:
Lieutenant General Yevgeniy Nikiforov is likely in the process of taking over command of Russia’s Western Group of Forces (WGF) in Ukraine.
He would be at least the fourth commander of the formation since the invasion, and replaces Colonel General Sergei Kuzovlev, who was appointed just three months ago.
As the Chief of Staff of Russia’s Eastern Group of Forces (EGF) during the early weeks of the invasion, Nikiforov would have been heavily involved in planning the disastrous attempt by EGF and airborne forces to advance on Kyiv from the north-west, via the Chernobyl area.
WGF is almost certainly currently tasked with holding Russia’s right flank, the area of Luhansk Oblast around Kremina and Svatove. As either side could plausibly attempt an offensive in this sector, Nikiforov assumes an important operational role in the conflict.
The continued churn of senior Russian officers probably reflects internal divisions regarding the Russian Ministry of Defence’s future conduct of the war.
