The head of the British Ministry of Defense assessed the possibilities of the Ukrainian counteroffensive and the end of the war.

British Defense Minister Ben Wallace is confident of the success of the Ukrainian army’s counteroffensive. However, the war may continue until next year, 2024. The New York Times reported this on Wednesday, April 19.

“I am optimistic that between now and the next few years, I think Ukraine will continue to gain momentum and a position of strength. I also believe that we must be realistic. There is not a magical moment when Russia has fallen,” the official said.

The minister noted that the Kremlin leader, Vladimir Putin, “shows no signs of weakening” despite the loss of 223,000 dead or wounded.

The Armed Forces are likely to attack where most Russian troops suffer from poor morale, are poorly fed, manned, equipped and trained, Wallace said. At the same time, “there are still a lot of people” there, and Putin is ready to “push more people through his meat grinder.”

The head of the British Ministry of Defense believes that support for Ukraine from the allies remains strong and only Kyiv will decide when to start negotiations on the cessation of hostilities from a position of strength.

“We can help them reach this position of power. They still have the momentum. It may not be very fast momentum, but it will definitely come. Momentum is important,” he concluded.

It will be remembered that the Prime Minister of Ukraine, Denys Shmyhal, said that Kyiv and Washington remain united in their views on the preparation of a counter-offensive, despite the leak of secret documents.
