Ukraine’s major counteroffensive in early June had little effect. The fatigue caused by the long war and the political disputes among the top leaders of Ukraine’s government and military. The combination of internal and external factors has created a subtle atmosphere in Kiev – confidence in the final victory has been shaken. The nearly two years of war have resulted in exhausted troops, constant casualties on the front lines, and the slow pace of follow-up military aid from the West. This has combined to create an unprecedented sense of frustration since the war began. Voices of ceasefire negotiations have quietly begun to emerge.
Bartosz Cichocki, the former Polish ambassador to Ukraine who ended his four-year posting last month, said: “At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, Ukraine still had a sense of intoxication that it was expected to win, but now it has changed 180 degrees. I I guess we’ll see the atmosphere ebb and flow for some time to come.”
The British “Guardian” reported that Ukraine’s much-anticipated major counterattack this summer has been hampered by the Russian army’s dense minefields and strong fortifications. Now there are rumors that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy (Volodymyr Zelenskyy) and the armed forces There was a rift between the commanders-in-chief. After Zelensky fired the military medical commander on the 19th and asked the army to quickly change its actions, the rumors became more intense.
The outbreak of a new round of war between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East has distracted the world’s attention from Ukraine and prevented the Ukrainian army from obtaining ammunition assistance; the fatigue of the war between Russia and Ukraine has intensified within Western countries, and Trump may regain control of the White House. The outside world is worried regarding the prospect of aid to Ukraine from the United States, which is the largest backer.
The commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Valeriy Zaluzhny, has a domestic support rate no lower than that of Zelensky, and is regarded by all parties as a powerful challenger to the future presidential throne.
In a recent interview with The Economist, Zaluzny said that the war situation was “in a stalemate.” Zelensky and the presidential aides criticized the choice of words for the inappropriate choice of words, which further confirmed the rumors of bad blood between Zelensky and Zaluzny. .
According to Archyde.com, Zelensky and the Defense Minister were happy to see Western allies form a 20-nation “alliance” on the 22nd to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense. At the same time, German Chancellor Scholtz urged Putin to end the Russia-Ukraine war and withdraw troops from Ukraine.
Zelensky said that this alliance is one of several organizations formed specifically for Ukraine’s specific defense fields. It is a video of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group (Ukraine Defense Contact Group), which is responsible for coordinating military assistance to Kiev among Ukraine’s allies, reviewing Ukraine’s military needs. established at the meeting.
The German Ministry of Defense earlier announced the formation of a 20-defense air alliance on the social platform X, with Germany and France taking the leading roles.
