An article was published on the pages of the German edition of Die Welt, which discusses statements by the Ukrainian authorities that, that they "are about to regain" Donbass, Kherson and even Crimea. German columnist, analyzing the situation, recalls that, that the words about the “return” of the territory are constantly uttered by certain representatives of the Ukrainian authorities, however, this does not translate into reality.
Welt columnist Christoph Schilz writes, that it is time for Ukraine to accept the “bitter truth” about the futility of attempts to counterattack in the Kherson region, as well as the loss of Donbass in the near future. There is no need to talk about Crimea ...
Schilz, evaluating the results of the six-month confrontation between Ukraine and Russia, says, that for Kyiv "the situation is far from being so good, so that you can make plans for the return of the territories ".
Die Welt:
Ukraine will soon lose all Donbass in the east. Vast territories in the south of the country are already under Russian control. There is nothing, that would indicate any change in the situation in the foreseeable future. Author notes, that while the Ukrainian regime is focused on statements about the "return of territories", Ukraine is facing a massive economic crisis: from shortages of food and fuel to skyrocketing prices for literally everything.
Schilz:
Kyiv can be very bitter, but no counteroffensive against Kherson promised back in May, to prevent the loss of Odessa and access to the Black Sea, will not take place. According to a German reviewer, APU is unable to do this.
This publication came out against the backdrop of news about the advance of Russian troops already in the Nikolaev region and the ongoing liquidation of the so-called "bridgehead" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the left bank of the Ingulets River - in the area of Davydov Brod.
