The head of Ukraine’s military intelligence, General Kyrylo Budanov, also claims that Kyiv is planning a new offensive against Russian troops in the spring and that this season will be a “hot” month for the invaders.

Budanov said he expected the fighting to peak in March, arguing that Ukraine was making plans for a military offensive in the spring.

“This will be a period when we will witness the liberation of new territories and even greater final defeats of the Russian Federation. This will happen all over Ukraine, from Crimea to Donbas,” he said in an interview with ABC News published on Wednesday.

Former MI6 agent Christopher Steele, who explained that according to various Western intelligence sources the Russian president could be removed quickly, said in June that Vladimir Putin “only has three to six months” before he becomes ” disabled from a medical point of view”. “.

CIA Director William Burns stated in July 2022 that there is no information that Vladimir Putin is in an unstable condition or in poor health.

“There are a lot of rumors about President Putin’s health, and as far as we can tell, he’s very healthy,” Burns said.
