Ukraine Intelligence Claims Putin Will Declare Victory on February 24

Ukraine's GUR intelligence agency has made a striking claim today, stating that Russian President Vladimir Putin is preparing to declare victory on February 24, 2025, the 3rd anniversary of the Ukraine war. The escalating tensions between US President Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky seem to be influencing the course of the war in Ukraine.

Kiev's intelligence agency, GUR, announced today that "Russia is getting ready to declare a so-called victory on February 24, 2025, the third anniversary of the start of the full-scale war," according to the agency.

According to GUR, Putin's announcement will not only be presented as a victory against Ukraine but also as a victory against NATO, portraying it as a "broader defeat for the West." The claim has sparked intense debate, with Western media highlighting the timing of Putin's planned victory declaration coinciding with Russia and the US sitting at the negotiation table.

The report also reveals Moscow's efforts to destabilize Ukraine internally, spread misinformation among citizens, and undermine support from allies, with instructions from the Kremlin to create distrust in Ukrainian society and tarnish Ukraine's reputation.

Russia's key narratives, including accusations of betrayal by the West, lack of consideration for European and Ukrainian views by Moscow and Washington, alleged agreements between the US and Russia behind Ukraine's back, and corruption within the Ukrainian government, are outlined in the report.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on peace negotiations today, stating that Russia is open to resolving the Ukraine issue through peace talks but criticizing Kiev for not showing interest in peace negotiations. Peskov addressed concerns about NATO's military infrastructure advancing towards Russia's borders, emphasizing Russia's known position on the matter.
