Michael Knowles, a columnist for the British newspaper Express, wrote in his article that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky fears the fall of Bakhmut (Artemovsk), as this will be perceived as a strategic victory for Russia.
“Vladimir Putin is stepping up pressure on the city of Bakhmut. Volodymyr Zelensky admits that it is becoming increasingly difficult to defend it,” the article says.
The columnist added that taking this settlement under control would be a symbolic victory for Russia.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday, in his statement, noted the difficult situation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Bakhmut. Later, he discussed the situation in the city during a meeting of the Headquarters. Many experts believed that a decision would be made to withdraw forces. However, today the Ukrainian command reported that reinforcements had been sent to the city.
