Ukraine arches for the summer attack of Russia

Donald Trump’s threat to withdraw American support and move away from Russia’s peace talks, which led to a warning in Kiev, which led to the stage that Ukrainian officials and soldiers expected to turn into a bloody Russian summer attack that could reshape the course of the war.

While Ukraine leaders continue to pay them for a 30 -day ceasefire, many people have not been subjected to the war that has been returning to Russia for years any time soon.

They argue that Russia does not show any sign of the scaling of its military attacks or make real concessions. They said that a recent meeting in Türkiye left the Kyiv negotiator, convinced that peace is still far.

There, the main negotiator of Russia has warned that they can once conquer and seize the regions of Ukraine in North Sumi and Carkif, according to Ukrainian official. A few days later, on a visit to the Russian Kursk region, where the Ukrainian forces were expelled, President Vladimir Putin said with approval when a local official said that the adjacent Sumi “must be for us.”

On Thursday, Putin announced that his forces “establishing a temporary security store” along the Ukrainian border, a term that was used before referring to the inconsistencies across the border.

Washington’s swinging support was only encouraged the Russian leader. After talking to Putin on Monday, US President Voludmir Zelinski from Ukraine said that the two sides should prolong the conditions of the peace agreement between them.

European governments, too, were slow to dispose of pledges to support security, including the proposed “power of reassurance” that have not yet been fulfilled, and some in Kyiv worried may never bear fruit.

Yahir Versov, a deputy and drone in the tenth Ukraine Brigade, said that the time has come for his country, “The Harsh Reality”, that Russia’s confidence may surpass Western unity.

“Putin is convinced that he can break Ukraine,” he said. “He simply believes that our full surrender is only a matter of time … The United States may stop helping it on any day. He sees Europe weak and decisive.”

Along the confrontation line in Ukraine more than 1000 km, the war settled in a brutal and deadly style. Moscow reaches its ranks before the soldiers and analysts said it leads to a new batch in the coming months.

The Ukrainian forces on the Eastern Front said that the Russian pedestrians are roaming motorcycles, defects and electric motorcycles. “A swarm of locusts … not a single wave, but it is an endless stream.

“They do not care about losses. They continue to come.

The fighting is intensified in recent weeks about Boucrovsk and Kostyantynivka, which presses Kramatorsk and Slovyansk strongholds and approaches the borders of the neighboring Dniproptrovsk area.

Infantry help are heavy weapons and high-tech in Russia that explode on their way, with sliding bombs, missiles and drones-including new models connected to the optical fiber cables that make it immune to electronic confusion. Defenders were forced to retreat from cities including Toretsk and Chasiv Yar, as the adherence cost has proven very high.

However, the Ukrainians “are still a tremendous force for defense,” said Franz Stefan Jadi, a military analyst in Vienna. “We can expect the gradual Russian progress, but it does not collapse imminent, nor the collapse of the confrontation line.”

Ukrainians are now less dependent on the United States for artillery supplies, as the Europeans rose. He added that Russia only has “a slight superiority in artillery fire.”

“We are exhausted.” Since 2014, he has fought through injuries and missing landmarks. The Trump campaign pledged to end the war at “24h” at the beginning that gave him a glimmer of hope. But the recent developments forced him and his forces to ignore the news because they send them to anger.

“It is just noise. Advertising. Lies,” he said. The war narrowed his world to the “next task … the next battle” – to the point that sometimes he does not feel human. “I am a coma.”

This feeling of exhaustion and frustration spreads in the ranks. Among the newly upset officers and the newly packed forces, the morale fades – wearing a growing feeling that there is no clear plan to end the war, and that the souls are sacrificed for nothing.

Oleksandr Shyrshyn, the battalion commander in the Mechanical Brigade 47, was publicly published this week with his fears. Its unit of Abrams is manufactured by the United States and German leopard tanks-symbols of support for Kiev Western-but he wrote on social media that even the best equipment cannot compensate for the defective planning that sent his men to the path of harm.

“In recent months, you began to feel like we wiped out – like our lives are treated as being eliminated.

He added: “The problems are methodological, not personal,” and urged a sober reractions of the operational capacity and a strategy that matches the reality of the battlefield.

The Ukrainian General Staff responded to his complaint by saying that she was looking into the matter.

The war revealed long -term weaknesses in the leadership structure in Ukraine. Conrad Mosica, director of defense consulting Roshan, said that her reform is difficult “when you are participating in a higher war since World War II.”

Some reforms are ongoing, but doubts remain about whether they will go away or quickly, enough to meet this moment.

The workforce is still one of the most urgent issues.

At the Kermlin meeting on economic development this month, Putin claimed that up to 60,000 Russians are “volunteers” to join the army every month – doubling approximately 30,000 Ukrainian, who said they were being recruited. Some analysts believe that both people are slightly hypocritical.

However, Ukraine refused to reduce the age of recruitment under 25 years, as it resists pressure from the United States and their other allies. The packing engine is still full of corruption and forced recruitment, including employment officers who call men who are not registered from the street and mobilize them in trucks. A recruitment campaign to attract 18 to 24 years has failed to a large extent, with only several hundred applicants, according to the people who have seen the program.

It is still a rare bright point for Ukraine its domestic production, and it was able to suffer severe damage and stop some Russian progress.

The Ukraine Army also objects to the culture of video game to motivate drones. The initiative that was launched in April is equivalent to the digital points, when they offer clips verified from the Russian drones destroyed. Points can be used to buy drones and equipment on a custom platform, “brave market 1”.

However, Valery Zaluzni, the General Ambassador and the current ambassador to Ukraine in the United Kingdom, warned against the London fans on Thursday that he would expect a “miracle … this will lead to peace to Ukraine.”

“With a tremendous decrease in human resources and the catastrophic economic situation we face-we can only talk about the war of high-tech survival,” he said. He said that the priority for Ukraine was the fighting in a way that “used the minimum human resources and the minimum economic means to achieve maximum impact.”

Russian missile strikes continue to hit the civilian areas of Ukrainian cities outside the front lines, a serious concern. Muzyka team follows large attacks across this spring – some of which include more than 200 missiles each. Russia now produces more missiles more than its launch, while the objections of patriots in Ukraine are declining.

Done -condensed aircraft attacks also. Russia launched more than 2000 Iranian drones on the first 20 days of May alone. While KYIV has improved its ability to distinguish between traps and those who have live warheads, the huge number has become irreplaceable.

“More will pass and strike their goals,” said Mozica. Russian drones have also been upgraded and now fly up and faster, making them more difficult to drop machine guns. Patriot and F-16S-both are often in the case of deficiency-the only viable meters.

Ukraine lost one of the F-16 in mid-May during an air mission, with the pilot out after three goals.

Many soldiers, increasingly, officials say the country must prepare for a long, asymmetric struggle.

“How long will it continue?” Virusov request. “Until we cut the belief of the Russians that we can be defeated.”
