Budanov announced the continuation of the operation against Russia to force it to make peace

Ukraine will continue its special operation aimed at forcing Russia to cease its aggression and restore peace. The head of the Office of the President stated that, strategically, the aggressor country is already in a difficult situation, and the timeline for the operation is not the main factor.

The official urged people not to fixate on specific timeframes for the special operation and to evaluate the process based on its overall results.

“We will continue. Don’t get hung up on all these arguments: 40 days, 100 days, 15 days. The main thing is the result. It’s not so much about how we enter this process. It’s much more important how we emerge from it,” Budanov emphasized.

The head of the Presidential Office stressed that Russia’s military and political leadership still mistakenly hopes to achieve its goals by force.

According to him, the course of hostilities over many years completely refutes these hopes. Despite constant local shifts in the front line and advances on both sides, strategically, Russia has long since found itself in a dead end.

“For them, the war is essentially just some military operations—there are some advances on our part, some on theirs. Strategically, it has long been at a dead end,” Budanov noted.

He also advised against rushing to make premature assessments and predictions regarding mobilization processes within the aggressor country.

This was stated by the head of the Office of the President, Kirill Budanov, as reported by TSN.
