People's deputy of Ukraine Oleh Dunda from the Servant of the People party believes that the transfer of hostilities to the territory of Belarus can be an effective strategy for Ukraine, as it will make it possible to expand the front and weaken Russia's control.

He stated this while speaking at the «XIII Forum of Free Russia» in Vilnius.

Oleh Dunda emphasized that the continuation of hostilities near Pokrovsk or Vuhledar will not bring the desired results, because such a war is a drain on resources. In his opinion, Russia is ready to spend everything to win, which puts Ukraine in a disadvantageous position.

«You need to understand one thing. It is impossible to win the war under Pokrovsk, it is impossible under Vuhledar. But it is quite possible to win a war on the territory of the Russian Empire or Belarus. The war going on near Pokrovsk is the war of the First World War — it is a war of resource depletion. We have to admit one fact that Russia is ready to spend everything in this war, unlike our partners. And she a priori has priority here in this regard. This is an unprofitable war for Ukraine.»

According to the people's deputy, military operations similar to the recent attack in Kursk should have been carried out a year ago during the counteroffensive in Zaporizhzhia.

«With our experience and our knowledge, we need to strike where the Russian Empire is as weak as possible. Rock it from all sides. The operation that was carried out in Kursk should have been carried out a year ago during the counteroffensive in Zaporizhzhia. And there would be a different result. Completely different,» he said.

In his opinion, the introduction of «small units» into the territory of a neighboring country will lead to the fact that the Belarusian army will lay down its arms. He also emphasized that such an operation would deal a serious blow to Moscow, demonstrating its inability to control territories under its control.

«My point of view, it is absolutely important to transfer the war not only to the territory of Briansk, Kursk region and Belarus. I am deeply confident that, having entered Belarus with a relatively small unit, the Belarusian army will lay down its weapons. It's not even confidence, it's knowledge, I would say. And this is a big blow to Moscow, to show that it does not control these territories. It is not ready to defend these territories,» he believes.

We will remind that in the summer the Armed Forces of Belarus announced that the situation on the Ukrainian border is becoming tense. Allegedly, Ukraine is bringing equipment and weapons to the borders.

Instead, the spokesman of the State Security Service, Colonel Andrii Demchenko, said in a comment to «Ukrainian Pravda» that any actions of the Defense Forces on the border with Belarus are aimed at protecting our state, and not at encroaching on foreign territories.
