Vucic, “Kherson Battle Decisive for Outcome of War”
The battle for Kherson will be decisive for the war in Ukraine. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic is convinced of this, saying “difficult times are ahead of us, next winter will be even more difficult than this one”. And this “because we are facing the Battle of Stalingrad, the decisive battle in the war in Ukraine, the Battle of Kherson, in which both sides use thousands of tanks, aircraft, artillery”. Quoted by the Tass news agency, Vucic said that “the West believes that in this way it can destroy Russia, Russia believes that in this way it will be able to protect what it needed at the beginning of the war and to end the war. That will create more problems everywhere.”
