Russian forces no longer capable of major breakthroughs in Ukraine — Stoltenberg
Russian troops are no longer capable of making significant
breakthroughs on the frontlines in Ukraine, NATO Secretary-General Jens
Stoltenberg said on June 27.
“They tried to launch an offensive again this spring and summer, but so far have only made minor gains,” Stoltenberg said in an interview with AFP
“And we have no other indicators or reasons to believe that Russia has the capabilities and forces to make major breakthroughs.”
At the same time, the official added that Russia is likely to continue attempting further offensives and will maintain its ongoing airstrike campaign.
On June 13, U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Charles Brown said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to stabilize the situation after the Russian attempt to advance towards Kharkiv in May.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
