The threat of capturing the city is over.
Over Mariupol the threat no longer hangs hobbies . The reason is the lack of sufficient troops to perform this military task. This was stated by Adviser to the President's Office Alexei Arestovich, analyzing the conversation between Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“First – they can not take Azovstal … Second – they understand that even “If we set a task to take Azovstal, they will put the most important and valuable resource there – assault infantry,” Arestovich said.
“They, fools, have announced the capture of Mariupol, and the fighting in Mariupol will continue, and more effective for the Ukrainian side, because the Russian troops have become less. This means that the threat of the fall of Mariupol has receded directly, because there are not enough troops to storm it, “he said.
