Recently, Ukrainian forces have managed to retake several villages and towns in the country.
According to Oleksiy Goncharenko, the success partly has to do with the army's morale but also with the military support.
- The Ukrainian army is fighting for our lives, and the weapons from our partners give us a great opportunity to move forward, he says, emphasizing that together it creates "a window of opportunity".
He does not believe that the Russian mobilization will affect the outcome of the war.
- It will only prolong the war.
The Russian state and army are like dinosaurs – with a big body, but with a small head and brain.
