Quote: "We understand that, today, the capabilities of the Russian Federation to defeat us in an open battle do not exist. They are now driving themselves to a dead end. And a rat that is driven to a dead end is the most dangerous.
And we are preparing very actively for the next month, two or three months, which may be decisive at this moment."
Details: Danilov added that Russia "will continue to go because it has put everything on the line" and will not try to reduce the consequences of the war for the country.
