Budanov: Russia will try to use the winter to put pressure on the Ukrainians, but to no avail.
Moscow hopes that attacks on critical infrastructure this winter will lead to mass discontent and protests in Ukraine. However, such a scenario will not force Ukrainians to abandon their national interests, OP head Kyrylo Budanov said in an interview with CBS News.
"Causing maximum damage to our critical infrastructure, they hope to create the basis for social unrest, street protests and incitement to basically give up national interests." But that won't happen," he said.
