Andrej Medvedev reflekterar över segern i Mariupol:
Citat:
Now we can say about the numerical superiority. I mean the numerical superiority of the grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Nazis at Azovstal.
Moreover, this has already been said without me. The main assault from our side was carried out by a little more than two hundred people. That is, there were 10 times (!) More militants.
Yes, aviation and artillery worked on our side. But the militants had both ammunition and food. They could sit for a long time. But they broke psychologically. Donbass held out for eight years. Sometimes, solely on the belief that someday, perhaps, it will be different, there will be Victory.
And the Nazis surrendered after a month. Because there is no faith, no idea.
And because, they understood, they would not surrender, they would be destroyed. Everyone.
This can now also be said. There would be no assault. They would just be destroyed by bombs. All to one. Why do you think there were statements that Azovstal would not be restored? That's it.
The capture of Mariupol is the victory of the Russian soldier. Who, with his steel will, faith, courage, did the impossible.
There will be many more victories. There will be unfortunate mistakes, it will be difficult, and maybe too difficult.
But there will never be going back now.
