The situation on the battlefield in Ukraine is “very fluid”, the White House commented cautiously on Tuesday, following press reports quoted American and Western officials worried regarding the evolution of the Ukrainian counter-offensive.
“I don’t want to play the generals in the bedroom,” replied Jake Sullivan, the national security adviser to the American executive, during an exchange with journalists. “I cannot establish probabilities or predict how things will ultimately evolve in this war, but we continue to support Ukraine in its counter-offensive efforts,” he said, adding that he believed the conflict was not at “an impasse”.
“It is true that the Russians are attacking in the northeast, it is also true that the Ukrainians are defending the northeast with some effectiveness,” assured Jake Sullivan. “Ukraine is also attacking” and “gaining ground in the south” of the country, he detailed.
