Taking into account how things are going on the front, a viewer of the TV24 program “Actual about military activity in Ukraine” asked the question: “Is it realistic that Ukraine will be able to carry out such a counterattack by 2030, which will result in the recovery of at least one occupied region. It is clear that the West reports that the Russians are suffering heavy losses, but we understand historically that for the Russians the loss of 1,000 soldiers in a day is no loss at all, while for the Ukrainians it is not and that they will be able to “multiply” like mushrooms after the rain and carry out a counterattack.”
Jānis Slaidiņš, NBS major and National Guard staff officer, in his answer to this question, repeated what he said several times, that this counterattack will not be a miracle, that it will solve the whole war in Ukraine.
“It can solve a lot, the Ukrainians can gain a lot, but it can also bring a lot of losses if the attack doesn’t happen. Clearly, after receiving Western aid, there is somewhere to hit unequivocally,” Slaidinš wants to point to reality. “Ukraine has only been defending itself for the last few months, now it has enough resources!”
As for the Russians, they have a good defense due to their positions, but the psychological preparation of the Russian armed forces for the moment when Russian soldiers see the involvement of Western equipment will be very important there. The slide reminds of the situation during World War 2, when soldiers died at the sight of it a tiger dense.
