To thwart these plans, Budanov intends to launch more cross-border attacks using Russian volunteers operating in Russia with HUR support, as well as using more drones to launch strikes outside the front lines.

There were nine cases in his life when he rose to the top, fell to the bottom, and then returned to the top.” But when it comes to any peace plan, “even someone like him will not be able to solve this issue in one day,” Budanov said.
