By launching a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin hoped to defeat and seize Ukraine within days. However, this Putin’s “three-day battle” in Ukraine has been going on for almost two years, and the situation at the front at the end of this year could probably be most accurately described with the words “undecided in favor of Ukraine”.
Israel’s war against the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas” somewhat overshadowed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine at the end of the year. However, even though the long-awaited Ukrainian counter-offensive began in 2023, it has not yet brought extensive changes on the front. This does not mean that Ukraine’s counterattack should be considered a failure, as Putin likes to claim.
Rather, we should be talking about the overly optimistic expectations that were placed on the counterattack before it even started.
