Zelensky awarded the military medal.
The recent news about the Ukrainian army has not been optimistic, and there have even been some negative news, such as the infighting between Zelensky and Commander-in-Chief Zaluzhny, and the fact that Ukrainian politicians have bypassed Zelensky to negotiate directly with Russia.
Based on my multifaceted information, I know:
In general, the report is not accurate and may have been affected by the ** war. There is currently no news of infighting in the Ukrainian army, and of course this is what Russia would like to see.
Let's discuss whether the Ukrainian army will be able to fight a protracted war?
I think it's okay to be within a time limit, say three or five years. Although it is not as good as expected, the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian army is far from being unsupportable, and the Ukrainian army is on the offensive and the Russian army is generally on the defensive.
Zelensky said something in a recent interview with the Associated Press:
Our war has entered a new phase, we have not flinched, and I am satisfied. We are fighting against the second largest army in the world, which is not something that the average country can afford. But we're losing people, and I'm not happy with that. We didn't get what we wanted** and I was frustrated. ”
Ukraine's most critical issue is to improve its ability to produce self-producing, such as self-propelled howitzers. Now it is able to produce 6 vehicles per month, and the production will continue to increase, which is independently developed by Ukraine, the first with 155 mm caliber shells.
At the same time, the United States and Ukraine will hold a meeting next week on the production of **.
TÜV Rheinland has also cooperated with Ukraine, and the production line will be formed in about half a year.
In addition, EU President Ursula von der Leyen proposed to resolutely support Ukraine and upgrade the EU's own deterrence and defense system. They understand that Ukraine is not just fighting for itself, but for all of Europe.
Regarding US military assistance to Ukraine, there is currently a bipartisan debate. If the two parties can reach an agreement on the border, the US Congress will smoothly pass the $60 billion bill for Ukraine.
The latest poll shows that 59% of the American people support aid to Ukraine, while 75% of respondents believe that it is very important for Ukraine to win this war.
The most important thing is that Ukraine as a whole has unanimously maintained its determination to resist aggression.
In particular, at the Supreme Council of the Rada, adopted this year, the "prohibition of the exchange of territory for peace" was adopted.
People not only need to meet basic needs, but also need to have some spiritual sustenance and faith. And even more so in a country.
Ukraine's belief is: to defend territory, every inch of land will be fought!
