Shults: We were not aware of Ukraine’s plan to attack Kursk

According to RCO News Agency, on Wednesday evening, German Chancellor Olaf Schultz said that Ukraine was planning to attack Kursk “secretly and without any coordination”.

According to the report of the Russian News agency “Tass”, the German chancellor stated in a joint press conference with the President of Moldova “Maya Sandu” in Chisinau: “First of all, Ukraine conducted its military operations in the Kursk region secretly and without any coordination, planning and In the end, he did it.”

He noted that Germany is closely monitoring the events.

The German chancellor also emphasized on the continuation of his country’s support for Ukraine and Berlin remaining as the main supporter of Kiev in Europe, and added: “Only the United States, as the world’s greatest power, is capable of doing more than Germany.

Earlier, the German “Bild” newspaper reported that the Ukrainian armed forces are using infantry fighting vehicles and German tanks in the Kursk region.

On August 6 (August 16), the Ukrainian army carried out unexpected attacks on Russia’s Kursk, and according to what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, the aim of these attacks was to create a “buffer zone” to prevent Moscow’s border attacks. .

Some analyzes suggest that NATO provided intelligence to Kiev in the Russian attack. It is quite clear that from the beginning of this war, the West used all its efforts against Russia and provided Ukraine with the necessary facilities in terms of weapons and equipment.

But according to the former CIA expert, the Ukrainian army’s attack on the Kursk region has not brought any significant results for Kiev, except for the attention of the Western media.

On the other hand, the Economist recently wrote in a report citing a source in the armed forces of the Ukrainian army: “The speed of the advance of the Ukrainians has decreased, and President Zelensky is still looking for the maximum advance.”

In his latest report on the developments in Kursk, Apti Aladdinov, the commander of the Russian Akhmat Special Forces unit and the deputy of the military-political department of the Ministry of Defense of this country, announced the halt of the advance of Ukrainian forces in the Suja area.
