Oleksii Danilov, the secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, told Sky News that he does not rule out "any scenario in the next two or three weeks" for the situation to come under control. He also said "the main fights are yet to come."
"Russia is preparing for maximum escalation. It is gathering everything possible, doing drills and training," he told Sky News. "I can say that we are not excluding any scenario in the next two to three weeks."
"Those countries who help us in our struggle have started to provide us maximum help. ... We went through an extensive difficult period, but I'm conscious the main fights are yet to come and they will happen this year, within two to three months. These will be defining months in the war."
"We will definitely win due to having all the world's support behind us," Danilov added.
According to Ukrainian fighters and analysts, Moscow has been depending on a cruder tactic by sending a huge number of troops, which has resulted in more Russian casualties than in previous months, Pravda reported.
