@upstairs1307 Metro,uk: Deluded Putin ‘thought he would capture Kyiv in three days’
Vladimir Putin initially thought Russia could defeat Ukraine and overthrow its government in just three days, according to leaked FSB intelligence.
Almost exactly a year since Putin launched his disastrous invasion of Ukraine, the leaks appears to confirm what has long been suspected: FSB spies had been feeding him false intelligence in the build-up to the war which told the Russian despot exactly what he wanted to hear.
According to the leaks, first published by The Sun, Putin’s spies assured him there were over 2,000 armed and trained Ukranians in every city who were waiting to rise up and topple Zelensky before welcoming the Russians with open arms.
The report comes from a source known as Wind of Change and was initially sent to Vladimir Osechkin, a Russian human rights activist and founder of ‘Gulagu’, an organisation which highlights abuses in the country’s prisons.
The emails were initially thought to be the work of a lone FSB officer, but it is now believed several people contributed to the leak.
‘We issued reports that at minimum about 2,000 trained civilians in every major city in Ukraine were ready to overthrow Zelensky,’ the source said.
‘And that at least 5,000 civilians were prepared to come out with flags against Zelensky on the beck-and-call of Russia.’
Wind of Change then explains that the FSB thought that once Zelensky had been overthrown, the Ukrainians would then fight amongst themselves to win Putin’s favour.
‘Do you want a laugh?,’ says the source.
‘We were expected to be the arbitrators for crowning Ukrainian politicians who were supposed to start tearing each other apart competing for the right to be called aligned with Russia.’
Russian troops came within 19 miles of Kyiv but were defeated around April last year, forcing the Kremlin to refocus their efforts on the east of the country.
Experts have put the Russian failure to secure victory on a range of things including poor intelligence, equipment and tactics.
According to Winds of Change, nobody among the Russian leadership had a backup plan ready in case they failed to take the Ukrainian capital.
‘“What if it doesn’t work?” This question was left unanswered when they planned to take Kiev in three days,’ they said.
