It is reported that after the European Union issued a statement on January 31 that the rescue to Ukraine was "basically in place", the Ukrainian side finally showed its sincerity and said that it would launch a new counterattack. Since Ukraine launched against Russia on three fronts including Zaporizhzhia, in the past few months, there has been no progress, and the ** has been disastrous, forcing the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense to change the attack plan. Britain revealed in December that Zelensky's original goal was to regain lost territory in order to "announce his intention to fight back", but this goal was not achieved until the end of this year.
According to the report, the U.S. Department of Defense and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine have previously drawn up a new set of ** plans to be implemented in 2024, and military operations are still the only feasible plan due to serious contradictions between Ukraine and Russia. The U.S. said in the middle of the month that the military had urged Ukraine to quickly improve the program in order to determine how best to assist Ukraine in 2024 and assist it in launching a counterattack. However, at this time, a new problem arose: Zelensky and Zaluzhny were revealed to have disagreed opinions, and due to the irreconcilable conflict, Zelensky ordered the dismissal of Ukraine. Now, this ban has not been endorsed by the Ukrainian ** office, and the United States has also expressed dissent.
On the 30th, Ukrainska Pravda published a news about a "new wave of counterattacks" in Ukraine - an interview with Kililobadinov, the head of the US Department of Defense Intelligence. Mr. Budanov said that the Russian attack will start from next November (most likely against the attack in Avdeyevka), but this attack has caused them a lot of damage. By the spring of next year, when the Russians will be out of combat, then Ukraine will be able to launch a big counterattack. However, he also realized that although the Russians had already won a small victory near Avdeyevka, there was still a long way to go before the offensive of the ** army.
For the first time since the "tacit failure" of the last autumn military strike, Ukraine officially announced a spring counterattack, while also sending a clear signal to the outside world: negotiations will not be included in the discussion, analysts said. The Telegraph also mentioned two difficulties that Ukraine is currently facing, first, Ukraine has adopted an "active defense" strategy and built many defense facilities in the rear, and once they leave, their combat environment will be very harsh. Second, Ukrainian military experts have suggested that Ukraine should launch a counterattack on the weaknesses of the Russian south, but without success, so their strength has always been the main problem that plagues Western countries, but this time, they will send their "home" - the newly formed army - away.
And most importantly, they found out something strange: the person who issued the new counterattack was originally Marshal Zaluzhny, but now it was replaced by Budanov. Director Budanov is the one who has just replaced Zaluzhny, and his appearance may have something else. In response to this statement, someone said: "Some Ukrainians believe that Zaluzhny's planned counterattack has failed, so it is only natural to replace him; It's like Russia has changed several commanders, but doesn't understand why, they will put pressure on Zelensky and put them in a dilemma. ”
