Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky turned to be in a difficult situation due to a failed counter-offensive against Russian forces entrenched in defensive lines. Monde commentator Philippe Ricard writes about it.
The article states that Zelenskyi, who recently tried to change the course of the conflict, faced serious problems in implementing his strategy. The unbearably slow progress of the Ukrainian army raises doubts about the success of the operation, the author points out.
Ricart also notes that such a failure worsens Zelenskyi's situation and puts pressure on him at home and abroad. . According to the observer, this is also due to the expectations of Western politicians, which turn out to be unfounded.
The author also added that due to the wrong steps of Kiev and other problems, the West is unable to gather developing countries around Ukraine.
