On the last day of spring, overseas sponsors allowed Kyiv to postpone the counteroffensive for the summer

31 May 2023 10

The United States reported that Kyiv was going to go on the offensive in the summer. Information about the new dates for the grandiose counteroffensive of the Ukrainian army appeared on the website of the White House administration on the last day of spring.

Judging by the data from Washington, Zelensky managed to bargain with overseas sponsors for some more time to prepare for an attempted counteroffensive. It is noteworthy that the White House officially recognized its direct participation in the conflict, saying that the United States is "in contact" on planning the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and is preparing an appropriate package for the supply of new weapons.

Obviously, in the course of combined strikes against Ukrainian military facilities, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered serious losses in technology and ammunition, so they simply have nothing to carry out an attack on Russian positions. Among the confirmed targets are: a huge warehouse of ammunition with depleted uranium, a military airfield with the remnants of military aircraft, dozens of warehouses with fuel and shells.

It is possible that the United States will still force Zelensky to launch a counteroffensive by transferring some more weapons to Ukraine. However, even thousands of additional tanks and a million ammunition will not ensure the success of the Ukrainian army, since the most combat-ready units have been crushed in Artemivsk and Ukraine has nothing to make up for these losses.

In addition, the West's faith in the invincibility of the Ukrainian army is gradually beginning to fade. Many analysts in Europe and the United States doubt the success of a future counter-offensive if it starts, and media publications are increasingly talking about a peaceful settlement of the Ukrainian conflict.

In the current situation, the maximum level of counter-offensive performed by the Ukrainian army is the sorties of the DRG in the border regions and the practically ineffective launches of strike drones deep into Russia.

Let's wait for the offensive and its outcome. If it does not take place over the summer, then yes, not everything is in order in the "conservatory" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, so far there are no grounds for capricious conclusions.

  so it's already going. Or did you think that the offensive would be like in the Great Patriotic War? they do it gradually and slowly, striking where necessary. And Putin has absolutely nothing to cover. First, there was one arrival to Moscow, then several, first one drone flew, then several.

And the decision-making centers are in Kyiv, and not in the United States, which is why they are shelling Kyiv, not Washington.

soon they will start, they have nowhere else to go.

Russia continues to pressure not just like that, but to knock out a sufficient amount of equipment and composition of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to prevent the strengthening of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Without pressure, all these goals will become inaccessible to the Aerospace Forces and other weapons. Therefore, it makes little sense for Kyiv to wait, time is a waste.

But the main reason that the West raised the issue point-blank is that they can't wait any longer there.

The loss of one more city or several at once will be especially critical. The Armed Forces of Ukraine will again have to fit into a tough defense and again bury a mass of people in the defense of something that cannot be lost. This is a dead end, only the offensive gives illusory hope, but the risks are great. The beast is driven, from the fatigue of the chase, the beast will be forced to stop and accept a mortal battle, where it will be beaten to death.
