Ukrainian armed forces have reportedly failed to achieve any of their objectives during the recent counteroffensive, leading to disappointment among the country’s leadership, according to a report by the American publication Newsweek.
The article highlights that Ukraine’s counteroffensive is “on its last legs.” Ukrainian officials had hoped for success as early as June, but after five months, none of their goals have been reached, emphasized the American publication.
Journalists believe that the Russian army has established formidable defense lines, making it impossible for the Ukrainian forces to break through. Furthermore, the Russian military possesses immense firepower that far surpasses the capabilities of the Ukrainian army, the article adds.
Earlier, American professor John Mearsheimer stated that the failure of Ukraine’s counteroffensive is a true catastrophe for Kyiv. He noted that the conclusion of the Ukrainian forces’ counteroffensive is “completely evident.” The expert described the operation of the Ukrainian troops as a massive failure and a calamity for the country.
Previously, doubts were raised in the United States about Ukraine’s ability to achieve military success.
