/ world in the present day information/ KP.RU army correspondent Alexander Kots assessed the most recent statements of the Western international locations concerning the offensive of the armed forces of Ukraine
„So many deaths for thus little consequence“, Elon Musk responded on social media to investor David Sachs, who cited an article by David Pine, a former Pentagon analyst and adviser to present US presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
„Ukraine’s territorial beneficial properties through the vaunted counteroffensive are so small they will barely be seen on the map.” writes Pine, and for higher readability he attaches a map on which the territory occupied through the three months’ preventing is definitely barely seen.
Pine estimates Kiev’s losses through the Ukrainian offensive at 40,000 folks. Vladimir Putin indicated an much more horrible determine – 71 thousand. The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Zaluzhny, I remind you, even earlier than the beginning of the “counter-offensive” assured that he wanted 60,000 educated bayonets and long-range missiles to succeed in Crimea. He obtained them however could not display the outcomes.
Arithmetic seems to be unhappy for Kyiv. Sure, the offensive potential remains to be there, however the prospect of nice success fades with it. And if Zelensky is attempting to attain not less than some consequence at any price, no matter losses, the West is step by step coming to grasp the intermediate Ukrainian fiasco.
Pine might be accused of a pro-Russian stance, however hardly can the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Employees, Normal Mark Milley. He rigorously states that the counteroffensive of the Ukrainian armed forces is not going to permit the total return of the misplaced territories.
U.S. Congressional Ukraine Caucus Co-Chair Andy Harris, whom Sachs additionally mentions on Twitter, is extra pessimistic: “The counter-offensive failed. I am unsure the battle may even be received.
The view throughout the ocean, in fact, shouldn’t be deceptive. Generally sure statements are supposed to stimulate the US management to extra actively assist Kiev and develop the vary of provided weapons. However it’s clear that the method of frustration and fatigue has begun.
This might result in extra aggressive assist for Ukraine or result in a rift amongst American elites, during which there isn’t any longer seen unity on the difficulty of additional help to Kiev. The identical Harris, one of many primary lobbyists for arming the ASU, says in the present day: “I believe it is time to actually name for peace talks.”
However, as Putin mentioned, any respite might be utilized by Kiev and its patrons to revive fight potential and accumulate assets. Subsequently, negotiations with him can solely be carried out from a place of energy the place we will dictate our phrases they usually don’t have anything to select from.
