Ukraine has stood for half a year, but this is not half the way to victory against the Russian Federation - The WP

This is stated in the editorial article of The Washington Post. The authors point out that during a full -scale invasion, the President Vladimir Putin failed to destroy Ukrainian democracy and establish a pro -Russian government in Kiev, and the people of Ukraine have shown courage, heroically reflecting Russia's military aggression for the last six months. According to The WP, Kyiv's success would be impossible without large -scale support for the event and the supply of modern weapons.

However, the further development of events in Ukraine remains unclear. "Ukraine has announced its intention to start a counter -offensive in order to regain a strategically important city of Kherson. It has made progress in achieving this goal in the form of daring, successful attacks of drones and sabotage in the Russian rear in Crimea. It proves the already demonstrated usefulness of US equipment.

The Russian Federation still holds 20% of Ukrainian territories, and Ukraine seems to have enough troops to displace the invaders. It continues to sell grain and energy for billions of dollars a month. However, Putin's regime can still give internal cracks or encounter mass riots because of the horrific human victims of the war, "the authors of the material say.

The article of the WP also announces that Ukraine is more likely to success in a full -scale war than Russia, if Western allies adjust their plans, overcome the economic crisis and strengthen the sending of modern weapons for the needs of Kiev. Earlier, The Washington Post told in detail about the defense of Kiev, which was engaged in the Colonel-General of the Armed Forces Alexander Sirsky.
