Zelensky has confirmed that “they need more time” to carry out the counteroffensive they had scheduled to take place in spring. The Ukrainian president has confessed that he could launch it now, but too many lives would be lost. Therefore, he has acknowledged that he prefers to wait for more military aid to arrive from the West.

Yago Rodríguez has analyzed in Al Rojo Vivo the decision that Zelenki has made, clarifying what is the decision to be taken now by Ukraine. “The dilemma is whether to wait longer to accumulate more forces and have time to train more people,” she has indicated.

In addition, he has recognized that this type of speech is usually common. “It must be taken into account that before an operation of these characteristics, expectations tend to be lowered so that in the event of a failure it does not have as much psychological impact on public opinion”, he explained, making it clear that what they are not going to do is say when they are going to carry out said offensive.
