Ukraine said Sunday that Russia, whose troops have been slowly advancing towards the capital Kyiv, may aim to divide the country into versions of North and South Korea.
Kyrylo Budanov, Chief of the Defence Intelligence, said in a statement on social media that the strategy could result from President Vladimir Putin´s failure to “capture Kyiv and remove Ukraine´s government”.
“There are reasons to believe that he may try to impose a separation line between the occupied and unoccupied regions of our country.
In fact, it will be an attempt to set up South and North Koreas in Ukraine,” Budanov said.—Agencies
