The situation in Mariupol is critical, the defenders of the city can save either an urgent military operation, or a political decision, said the “Ukrainian truth” commander of the 36th separate brigade of the marines of Ukraine Sergey Volyna.
Volyna believes that Mariupol is even possible, but such an operation “must be carried out as soon as possible” with the involvement of “experienced commanders and the necessary funds”. At the same time, he noted that the marines do not intend to give up.
