The Kremlin did not agree with the assessment that the conflict in Ukraine is deadlocked

Russia continues to achieve goals within the framework of the special operation in Ukraine, the conflict has not reached a dead end. This was stated by presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov.

“No, he didn’t reach a dead end. Russia consistently continues to conduct the SVO. All goals that have been set must be achieved. And the Kyiv regime should have understood long ago that even talking about any prospects for victory on the battlefield is absurd. The sooner the Kiev regime understands this for itself, the sooner some other prospects will open up for it,” he said.

Previously, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny in an interview with The Economist magazine statedthat the conflict in Ukraine has reached a dead end, Kyiv will not be able to achieve a breakthrough. According to him, for this to happen, a sharp technological leap in the military field is necessary.

Previously The Sunday Times wrotethat disagreements arose between the commander in chief and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky regarding the completion of the Ukrainian counteroffensive. According to the publication, Zaluzhny believes that the offensive is nearing completion and that it is necessary to prepare for the operation next year. Zelensky is disappointed with the results of the counter-offensive and is of the opinion that it is impossible to stop for now, since the patience of the Western allies may soon come to an end.

Ukraine has been waging a counteroffensive since early June. The Russian authorities have repeatedly stated that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are unable to achieve their goals in any area. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu stated that since the beginning of offensive operations, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have lost more than 90,000 people. Russian President Vladimir Putin called the Ukrainian counteroffensive a failure.
