The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said that the war with Russia would reach a turning point by mid-August and end by the end of the year.
In an exclusive interview with Sky News, Major General Kyrylo Budanov also said that a coup was underway in Russia to remove Vladimir Putin, and that the Russian leader was seriously ill with cancer.
Most of the active combat actions will have finished by the end of this year. As a result, we will renew Ukrainian power in all our territories that we have lost, including Donbas and the Crimea
Major General Kyrylo Budanov
According to him, Russia is suffering huge losses in the war, and Ukraine's military intelligence is learning about the Kremlin's plans as soon as they begin to take shape.
We have been fighting Russia for eight years and we can say that this highly publicised Russian power is a myth. This is a horde of people with weapons
Major General Kyrylo Budanov
