The Chief of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Kirill Budanov, has acknowledged that the country’s armed forces have fallen behind schedule in their plans for conducting combat operations. These remarks were reported by the publication “Ukrainska Pravda.” Budanov emphasized that the Ukrainian troops are not lagging behind, but rather have fallen behind schedule. According to him, “not everything has gone smoothly.”
However, the head of the directorate did not provide any further details. Yesterday, the White House Coordinator for Strategic Communications, John Kirby, announced that the United States has just allocated an additional $200 million to Ukraine and will continue to assist Kyiv as much as possible. However, the official emphasized that American aid will not be endless.
General Charles Brown of the United States Armed Forces stated that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will continue their counteroffensive attempts during the winter months, despite any difficulties that may arise, and the American side will provide them with all possible support.
Earlier, the United States recognized the failure of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ counteroffensive.
