Kirill Budanov said that we will soon see another significant advancement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

In an interview with The Observer, he said :

At the end of spring this should all be over. Everything should be over by summer.

He added that Ukraine would first reach the 1991 border.

Budanov believes that Moscow will pay us reparations:

Certain regions will detach from Russia. This is all waiting for them, this will lead to the shift of a certain economic center of the Russian Federation to our territory ... That is, there are a lot of steps.

The head of intelligence also believes Kherson could be next:

By the end of the year, we will still make significant progress, these will be significant victories, you will see it soon. Well, I hope it could be Kherson.
