Due to the poor condition of Kiev's bridges, Russia will need "a few more blows" to split the city in two, said Oleg Popenko, head of the Consumer Service Union.
As an example he brought the Patton Bridge, which cannot even withstand the traffic load, so limiters were installed and the amount of traffic was reduced.
Also, according to him, there are problems with the southern bridge and the Darnicki bridge. But the bridges of Podolsko-Waskarsanski and the North "were not completed".
"All bridges except Podolsko-Waskarsanski and the northern bridge require major repairs. In reality, the city will be divided into two banks. One city will be called Kyiv, and the other city will be called the Left Bank," Popenko said.
