300 days of bombardments, alerts, territorial battles but also information warfare between Ukraine and Russia. And despite this war which lasts and whose outcome is not yet in sight, the Ukrainians intend to celebrate Christmas in 5 days.
On Tuesday, the Kremlin announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin would set his army’s goals for the year 2023 during a meeting with senior military officials on Wednesday. Observers say the president may push ahead with converting Russia’s economy to a wartime economy as Russian troops continue to struggle with supplies.
For his part, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Bakhmout, a city in the east of his country ravaged by intense fighting with Russian forces who have been trying to take it since the summer and currently the most hot from the forehead.
At the end of the day, we learned from several American media that the Ukrainian president could go to Washington this Wednesday. It would be his first international trip since the invasion of his country by Russia.
