Ukrainian secret services have not yet killed Vladimir Putin because he is hiding. "He's just starting to pop his head out again, and when he does, we're not sure if it's really him," says Ukrainian General Vadim Skibicki, number two in the military secret service, GUR, through whose desk they all pass. sensational and daring operations beyond the front line and into the heart of Russia. He does not hesitate to accept the most coveted objective of them: the physical elimination of the Russian president.

Is GUR Behind Attacks on Russian Pro-War Intellectuals? I think the Russians are at war with each other, fighting over who will take the lead. I am talking about people like Prigozhin, Girkin and others who criticize the power in Moscow and the army.

Your superior, Budanov, says you have a long list of targets to eliminate. Will there be further assassinations of Putin regime propagandists?

They are not our main focus, they are not that important. Priority is to strike a unit commander who sends his troops to attack us on the war front.

And can you do this?

Yes, this is a strong signal to everyone else. I cannot say who and how many they are, but we perfectly follow their movements, their command centers and their positions at the front.

Will you organize a new attack in Crimea?

The movement of weapons and ammunition passes through Crimea, and there is not enough vital infrastructure to make it impossible to intercept this line. The reinforcement and regrouping of the Russians, the supply of ammunition and equipment to the occupied territories is carried out from the peninsula. There are partisans who are capable of hitting the Russians, but so are we. Blowing up the Kerch Bridge is important.

Have you done it in the north, in Russia, in railways, warehouses, airports?

Yes, but all supplies come from Rostov or via the Crimea. They always pass by these two great roads, and the Russians know how important the regions of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson are. They are rapidly rebuilding the port of Mariupol, which will become a third essential element for logistics.

And you will attack him?

It is logical that yes. If there is fuel, weapons and ammunition, they will be eliminated.

Who takes these actions, you or the regular armed forces?

Both the army and we, as a secret service, have a special forces command that deals exclusively with this. We share the tasks. We must kill the enemy before he reaches us. And we must force the change of all their programs and plans.

Are you trying to kill Putin?

He feels it coming, and perhaps he fears being eliminated by his own people. Many people in Russia still support the "special operation". But by monitoring social networks and tapping phones, we understand that the victims in the ranks of the Russian army are so many that they are creating anxiety among the Russian people.

The same goes for business, for business elites who are losing billions of dollars. Meanwhile, due to the sanctions, they lack many elements for the production of missiles, for example for the X-101 and this affects their accuracy. The Russians boasted that they had the most powerful and sophisticated weapons. But it is a fairy tale. Look at their fleet in the Black Sea: it is no longer leaving port, and there they have also hidden submarines.

Budanov talks about a demilitarized zone of 100 km, as a guarantee for a peace agreement...

First we must manage to liberate our territory up to the border. Then everything will depend on negotiations. But I will give you an example, the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant. For us, it must be demilitarized and a security zone must be created around it.

We are negotiating, but the Russians are saying: Ok, let's talk to Gross of the IAEA, but if we remove the heavy weapons, we will leave our soldiers here". Conversations with them will be very difficult. Then there must be a guarantor that the agreements will be respected, because we do not trust the Russians.

What is your relationship with Prigozhin?

We are trying to kill him too.

The first target on your list?

Vladimir Putin, who coordinates and decides. But all Russians must account for what they have done. Chief of Staff Gerasimov and Defense Minister Shoigu planned the attack and cannot go back. Chechen Kadyrov was very present in the first months, but where is he now? He is realizing that strategically the Putin regime has already lost the war. But the list doesn't end there. It is Surovikin and the Russian commanders who have come here to Ukraine thinking they would participate in a parade.

What is your limit? Can you kill a Russian civilian? An oligarch? A propagandist?

We are at war and they are our enemies. If a major figure manufactures or finances their weapons, eliminating them will save many Ukrainian civilians. So he will be killed. According to international conventions it is a legitimate objective.

Are there signs that you are preparing depleted uranium attacks?

The Russians are using this issue to scare you.

Will you destroy the Kerch Bridge?

We will leave him a way out. Every time there is an explosion in Crimea, the bridge becomes very populated with people.../ Adapted from CNA.al
