The West was afraid of Russian President Vladimir Putin, so it did not give priority to Ukraine’s victory during the counteroffensive. The British newspaper The Daily Telegraph writes about this.
“Behind this abject failure (Ukrainian counter-offensive – URA.RU note) was a successful Russian deterrence campaign [в лице Путина]. Washington gave priority to preventing retaliatory actions by Moscow rather than to winning for Ukraine,” the newspaper said. Long-range ATACMS missiles are given as an example. The article notes that US President Joe Biden was afraid to transfer them to Kyiv, fearing Putin. The newspaper also writes that in the current state of affairs, only the Russian leader can emerge victorious.
Earlier, US Army Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis said in the West scared of the decision President of Russia on the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus. According to the journalist, the United States does not have a “trump card” to defeat the Russian Federation, because for every decision of Western countries, Putin has a “corresponding nuclear ace.”
