Military Focus Shifts to Troop Reorientation and Securing the Land Bridge

RUSSIA
  • Today’s focus remains on troop reorientation from Kyiv & Chernihiv towards the southeast.
  • Only a partial pullback has been registered and none have returned to Russia - suggesting a mere reorientation towards securing the land bridge, Donbas & Crimea to bolster its negotiating position for territory, having acknowledged and inability to take Kyiv without facing more casualties.
  • Here, Mariupol holds the key to a stronger strategic foothold for Russia.
  • In negotiations, markets are now looking for specificity in written agreements that could make a Zelensky-Putin meeting possible in near-term.
