Putin-Trump Call, US Ceasefire Strategy Fails. Poland Patriot Missile Scandal
"I'm fairly sure, in fact, I'm very sure that we will be seeing attacks on the decision-making centers later this summer. In the meantime, what the Russians are doing is that they're pounding Kief."
Alexander argues that Russia's warnings about targeting decision-making centers in Kiev remain active despite recent restraint. He suggests the strikes were delayed after Starobilsk incident and that the Oreshnik missile system is not yet fully ready. He asserts that Russia is systematically degrading Kiev's air defenses in preparation for a major campaign involving government facilities.
