"Russia will issue ultimatums until October 10, and then a period of great bargaining will begin" - political expert Kulyk

Political expert Vitalii Kulyk believes that the invading Russian forces will try to set the frontline and issue another ultimatum regarding the annexation of occupied Ukrainian territories to Russia

He shared his opinion with Espreso TV. 

"The Russian forces will try to fix the front and put forward another ultimatum, which they will announce from today, September 30, and until October 4. These ultimatums will be about the fact that they have annexed territories to the Russian Federation and will now announce some entry procedures, examinations of the Constitutional court, that is, there is a leeway until the 10th, and at that time they will issue ultimatums. Then there will be a period of great bargaining, and then the Kremlin will try to sell this new geopolitical reality, which exists in the head of Putin alone, to the whole world as something to agree to or work with. And that's all under the G20," the political expert emphasized.

Vitalii Kulyk notes that Ukraine's Armed Forces continue the offensive and will continue to advance, and the encirclement of the Russian enemy in Lyman is a clear confirmation of that.  As for threats of nuclear weapons, Ukrainians have long since lost their existential terror, especially since Putin will not achieve the desired results through the use of nuclear weapons as his last trump card. Therefore, the question is about the stagnation of Russia, and then there will be either a cascade collapse, or the transformation of the Russian Federation into a black hole.
