The Ukrainian counteroffensive continues, and the United States is amazed at the progress that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been able to achieve.

The Defense Forces are now overcoming Russian defenses that are the largest in 100 years. And allies must understand what Ukraine needs in order to overcome these barriers. Victoria Nuland, US Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs in the Joseph Biden administration, stated this at the annual meeting of the Yalta European Strategy (YES).
The White House spokeswoman noted that the United States explained to partners from Europe, Asia and Africa the negative consequences that would threaten global security if Ukraine were defeated in the war with Russia. If dictator Vladimir Putin wins, “a type of evil will become the norm throughout the world.” The Ukrainian people are now defending democracy, so they need support.
Nuland is also confident that, despite the haste of the counteroffensive, “everything will not end in these weeks.”
We have a long road ahead of us in the development of Ukraine. We must be prepared financially, psychologically and mentally for this,” she noted.
Let us recall that the head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have about 30-35 days to actively conduct combat operations before the onset of adverse weather conditions. The general also admitted that the Ukrainian counter-offensive has been slower than expected.
