According to the information of “Daily Mail” Russian troops have set about building barricades and trenches around the coasts of the peninsula and near the main roads leading to Crimea.
According to the British publication, Putin is ready to sacrifice the tourist season in Crimea this summer in order to be ready to repel a possible counteroffensive against the peninsula. In practice, artillery guns are already located on the northern beaches of Crimea.
Kiev has said recently that it is ready to negotiate with Moscow, but only when Ukrainian troops reach the borders of the Ukrainian peninsula, a task that has been described as extremely ambitious by a number of military analysts given the current posture of Ukrainian forces.
For Putin, however, such a scenario would be devastating, possibly leading to the fall of his regime—an option the Kremlin will try to avoid at all costs.
