Kyrylo Budanov, Head of the Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine, has stated that the Russian Federation is committing acts of terrorism in the war against Ukraine, but he is sure that it will not succeed in completely depriving Ukrainians of heating and electricity.

Details: He states that "everything that Russia is doing now is an act of terrorism; its main goal is to spread panic, fear and uncertainty about the future."

"Panic and fear are the main weapons of terror," said Budanov.

Therefore, the Russians are trying to cause serious losses to the Ukrainian energy sector and stop the export of electricity from Ukraine in order to inflict an economic blow to this state as well.

Quote by Budanov: "Well, in general, as they say, plunging Ukraine into complete darkness and cold winter is their dream. But, believe me, this will not happen; all our municipal services are working accordingly, and their [Russia’s] dreams will not come true. There are indeed complications, but it is not critical yet.

By the way, [here’s] an interesting point: during the entire previous period, the Russians were mostly hitting military targets, but they didn’t hit civilian targets so much. And now they don't hit the military at all, just the civilians.

This once again confirms my assertion that Russia is a terrorist state, and it uses terrorist methods to achieve its goals."
