UK Claims Russia Has ‘Continued Failure’ In Ukraine – But Putin Will Not Give Up –

According to UK officials, Russia is experiencing a “long -term defeat” in the war with Ukraine, but other reports indicate that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not stop the aggression any time soon.

The Kremlin moved most of its forces to the eastern Donbass region of the country, but bravely resisted the Ukrainian resistance, the defense ministry reported Tuesday night in an update.

The Defense Ministry wrote on Twitter: “Russia’s ability to thrive continues to be affected by the environmental, logistical and technical challenges they have faced previously, combined with the stability of Ukraine’s high military motivation.”

However, the failure to win quickly in Ukraine threatens to make the attacks more aggressive, according to the defense ministry.

Officials tweeted on Tuesday: “Russia’s inability to suppress the fighting in Mariupol and their relentless attacks, which have harmed civilians, indicates that they will not be able to achieve their goals. as fast as they want. “

For example, Mariupol, a port city in southeastern Ukraine, has been under siege for more than 50 days.

But things could change soon: on Wednesday morning the region’s naval commander called on the international community to help, warning that “the enemy is 10-1 ahead of us … we just have days or hours left “.

However, the Defense Ministry points to the “stability of the high motivation of the Ukrainian armed forces” as one of the reasons why Russian forces have so far not been attacked.

The war also seems to have strengthened the West, exactly the opposite of what Putin intended.

The caretaker ambassador to the UK, Philip T. Reeker, told Sky News: “Vladimir Putin thought he could find a divided West, a divided alliance, that could steal the wolves. He was so wrong. “

He said the NATO alliance was actually stronger than ever.

According to Bloomberg “More and more insiders believe that Putin’s commitment to continue the aggression on Russia will lead to years of isolation and tension.”

Kremlin insiders, speaking on condition of anonymity, are likely to fear it will damage the country’s security, economy and global influence as the world over-responds to Russia’s possible attacks on civilians.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly warned that war will plague Russia for years and wrote in the Telegram in his nightly update that the “defeat” of the aggression was “marked state of Russia as the source of absolute evil for generations. “

However, Bloomberg added in his resume: “Many strong players are afraid to suppress dissent in order to publicly express their concerns.”

Instead, he believes: “Putin is determined to continue the struggle, even if the Kremlin has had to reduce its ambitions from a quick and comprehensive conquest of most of the country to a regrettable battle for the Donbass region.”
