Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky said that the Ukrainian command intends to prepare reserves for a new offensive. The key to the success of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ new offensive will be the West’s ability to increase supplies of military equipment and ammunition for the Ukrainian army.

University of Chicago professor John Mearsheimer expressed the opinion that key figures in both Ukraine and the West already understand that Kyiv and NATO will face inevitable defeat in the conflict with Russia.
