TV presenter Olga Skabeeva, nicknamed the “iron puppet” of President Vladimir Putin, is trying to prepare viewers of the “Russia-1” channel for the possible defeat of the troops of General Sergei Surovikin in the Kherson region, where Russians have begun to evacuate. civilian population as a result of the threat of a powerful offensive of troops from Kyiv.

American journalist Julia Davis, who watches Russian television, notes that while General Surovikin is declaring a “tense situation” in the Kherson region, in Olga Skabeeva’s studio, the Kremlin propagandist is trying to prepare public opinion for another defeat of the Russians on the Ukrainian front. .

Most analysts, including ISW and British military intelligence, believe that all public appearances, including General Armageddon, as the new commander of Russian forces in Ukraine is called, are being done to prepare Russian citizens for another defeat under the pretext that civilian lives in Kherson, it is more important to evacuate them because of the Ukrainian forces, who are planning an attack on the hydroelectric plant, which will flood a large area of ​​Kherson.

During the show, Olga Skabeeva, who seems concerned about the situation in Kherson, goes live with pro-Kremlin journalist Oleksandr Kots, who confirms her fears on the spot.

Putin’s “Iron Puppet” demands details on the number of Ukrainian forces in the area and the equipment he is prepared to use in the southern region of Ukraine, but appears to be concerned about the civilian situation.

Kots reports that they are “very worried” about ordinary people, as happened in Mariupol, so they are being “evacuated” because houses and neighborhoods can be rebuilt, as happened in the Russian-captured port city, claims a pro-Kremlin journalist.

Propagandists complain about the aid that Kyiv receives

He complains that Kyiv troops have been bombing the Antoniv bridge across the Dnipro for months to destroy the only supply route for Russian troops in the Kherson region, while Ukrainian troops at the front are four times larger, says Kots.

A military correspondent claims that these troops were trained abroad. in Britain, in accordance with NATO standards, to use HIMARS and other modern combat equipment, which puts Putin’s army in great difficulty.

“No one is planning the capital in Kherson, we are probably planning to defend it, there will probably be fighting for the city, during which Ukrainians will not hesitate to use weapons where there is a civilian population. We have seen this in the past not only in Mariupol, but also in other cities. The same will be the case in Kherson, especially since Commander Surovikin also stated that prohibited weapons, such as chemical weapons, or flooding the territory will be used. Civilians are being evacuated to minimize civilian casualties,” said Kots on Olga Skabeeva’s broadcast.

Concluding the report, the journalist noted that he “doesn’t want to hope for anyone”, since there will be no good news from Kherson region in the next two months, stating that there will probably be “some loss of territory”, but a loss in a battle is not a loss in war, – the conclusion was also emphasized in the TV studio, where the idea of ​​a crisis during a “special military operation” was accepted.

Olga Skabeyeva says that Russia is also at war with NATO, and bitterly wonders why Moscow was so wrong to believe that Zelensky would not ask for NATO’s help and that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization would not help.
