Oleksiy Arestovich, an advisor to the head of the presidential office, said that the Russian military will soon try to transfer its reserves to the areas where they have had success. In particular, the OOS area, near Mariupol, Kharkov region, as well as Kiev region.

About this he said today on the air of a telethon, which is jointly held these days by the leading Ukrainian TV channels.

"There will be another attempt to attack, now they are on pause, near Kiev almost defeated, trying to poke in small units, but we are destroying them. They will try to throw reserves to the areas where they have had success. This is certainly the OOS zone, near Mariupol, Kharkiv region, maybe Kiev region," Arestovich said.

He added that the occupants' reserves will fall within 10 days.

"Since they are feckless and will do everything wrong, these reserves will also go down, but it may take another 10 days or a week from the beginning as they are put into combat. I give them two or three and a half weeks of their attempts to actively attack because of the pause, and after that they will become like bunnies, because there is nothing to fight with," stated Arestovich.

According to the adviser to the head of the OP, after the next attempt the Russian occupiers can genuine negotiations to end the war.

"And after this attempt, it will be much easier than it was, then it will be time for a positional war. Defensively they will be, we will know where they are and finishing them off with missile strikes, guerrillas, SDF, local population forces will be much better. The next phase is more advantageous for us and then they will go for real negotiations, not meaningless ultimatums," he said.

It should be noted that Russia's war against Ukraine is continuing for the 17th day.
