Military analyst for Ukraine: “Western involvement would signal the start of World War III”

For war in Ukraine which, as he stressed, can continue for a long time, the military analyst, Faidon Karaiosifidis, spoke in a radio interview on Friday (11/3). “There is no way out of what Russia has created” he stayed.

“This war can go on for a long time. “Strong Russian forces could overcome and neutralize many pockets of resistance at the moment, but what will be the result,” he told ERT’s First Program 91.6 and 105.8.

As he explained: “The map of Ukraine slowly, during these 16 days began to blushas at the moment there is no point, in the whole east, north-northeast and up to the southeast arc between the borders of Ukraine and Russia that there is no Russian force that has invaded, with the exception of a very small part in Mariupol left and right ».

“The Russians will now besiege big cities and this is a great bargaining chip”

“The Ukrainians are fighting, they are defending, but they have nothing to expect. There is no one to turn to for real help, so what will continue will be a war of attrition. Obviously the Russians “They will now besiege big cities and this is a great bargaining chip, because I can not think that they will level Kyiv, for example,” said Faidon Karaiosifidis.

«The gap between the Ukrainian forces and the Russian war machine is very large“at an incomparable level, especially in certain areas, such as the air force, which is non-existent in Ukraine,” he added.

«There is a military and diplomatic impasse. At the moment o Putin he constantly puts on the negotiating table things that he will start removing when the time comes for the real negotiation. “Because the other side does not have much to negotiate,” he stressed.

What most analysts point out, that Putin has found himself in a dead end, having started a war with his own decision in which he can not come out defeated, also finds Mr. Karaiosifidis in agreement.

“The West can not get involved”

“Let us not forget how Putin’s speech started when he announced it invasion, that Russia in the post-Soviet era was humiliated for 10 years. It has a nuclear arsenal larger than the United States, without much difference in the number of nuclear reactors, but it is still the largest.

On the other hand, the West cannot be involved as it has categorically stated, because that would be disastrous, it would signal the trigger of World War IIISaid the military analyst.

“What has been heard for days about the no-fly zone or the release of aircraft from Poland is madness,” he said.

Expressing the opinion that a diplomatic solution does not seem possible, Faidon Karaiosifidis concluded by concluding that the peace talks while the operations are going on are a pretextor, such as de-Nazification, the release of repressed Russian-speakers in the East, chemical and biological weapons laboratories in cooperation with the West, all belong to a series of excuses for the invasion.
