Quote from Kim: "No, I believe that Mykolaiv is just one city among many, but from the point of view of Russia’s [military - ed.] strategy, it’s one of the places they wouldn’t mind capturing or passing through.

Because if they had an opportunity to attack Odesa, they would attack it.

Mykolaiv is now a frontline city.

It could have been Kherson, could have been Mykolaiv, could have been Odesa – or any other city."
