"Requires the strongest concentration": Zelensky stated that there was a difficult stage of war

The adviser to the chairman of the OP Mikhail Podolyak confirmed that in international relations with some countries there is a "cooling". However, in his words, negotiations with Russia would only lead to war with even more tragic consequences. In Ukraine, there is a "unmistakable sense of gloom". The negative mood for the rapid victory in the war with Russia is explained by a number of internal and external factors. This is stated in The Guardian of November 20.

Journalists noted that the team of President Vladimir Zelensky has a tension, as well as rumors about the "differences" between him and the commander -in -chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny. In addition, the summer counter -offensive of the defense forces disrupted mine fields and fortifications prepared by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

The material states that while Ukrainians are preparing for the winter attacks of Russian troops, optimism on the short return of Donbass and Crimea fades. The adviser to the chairman of the Presidential Office Mikhail Podolyak confirmed that there was a difficult stage of the war. According to the official, he requires "the strongest and most difficult concentration. " "Let us clear, there are no real negotiations. All this would be an operational pause.

Russia would use it to significantly improve its army, carry out a new mobilization, and then restore the war with even more tragic consequences for Ukraine," he said. The adviser also acknowledged that in the relations of Ukraine with many non -wicked states there was a "cooling". "This complicated the creation of a broader coalition of Ukraine's support in the fight against Russia," he said. However, the conflict between Zaluzhny and Zelensky was denied by OP.

"Zelensky is his direct chief, the conflict cannot be by definition," Podolyak emphasized. We will remind, the wives of Russian servicemen came to protest demanding to take their men further from the front line. The UK Ministry of Defense noted that "the infinitely prolonged combat deployment of personnel without rotation is increasingly considered as non -viable. " On November 20, the head of the Pentagon Lloyd Austin arrived in Ukraine with a non -inanomous visit.
