The Ukrainian army cannot take the initiative to attack Russia, because it will invite even more brutal retaliation.
Instead, the Ukrainian army should adopt a defensive strategy, using its geographical advantage and strong defensive lines to defend itself against a Russian offensive. This would reduce the loss of human and material goods, while also buying the international community more time and space to find a peaceful solution. However, this does not mean that the Ukrainian army should be helpless in the face of Russia. They can take a series of proactive measures to counter the Russian threat. First, they can strengthen military cooperation with NATO and other Western countries, seeking more support and help. Second, they can strengthen domestic security and intelligence efforts to detect and thwart any potential threats from Russia in a timely manner. In addition, they can strengthen domestic economic and political reforms, increase the overall strength and stability of the country, and make Russia dare not take military action lightly. In conclusion, the Ukrainian army should adopt a defensive strategy, actively respond to the Russian threat, strengthen cooperation with the international community, and increase the overall strength and stability of the country. Only in this way can we effectively safeguard the security and stability of the country and achieve the goals of peace and development.
After that, if the Ukrainian army is no longer restricted, it can counterattack Belgorod, divide the troops into three routes, and launch a centripetal assault, as shown in the picture above.
