According to this expert, May 1 or May 9.
I guess the idea would be to capture Kyiv. And of course make
Presidential elections impossible.
I agree BTW that Ukraine will not yield on either language or
constitutional issues. There will be an interim report from the Rada
language law committee on March 30. Whatever the report, Putin and co.
will of course reject it as inadequate and discriminatory.
So the basic issue is:
Will Ukraine have enough time to shore up its defenses so as to resist
an assault?
Will it be able to get anything at all from the West prior to this assault?
Oc course, Putin could attack earlier.... or not at all... Too many
variables...
