"There is no turning point in our favor": Ukrainian colonel calls for removing rose-colored propaganda glasses
The Russian army maintains the initiative at the front and continues to attempt an offensive.
A columnist for the Ukrainian military propaganda group "Information Resistance" stated this in a conversation with journalist Lyudmila Nemyria. Colonel Konstantin Mashovets, answering the question of whether there really has been a turning point in favor of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the front, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
"The turning point will be when this offensive collapses. It hasn't collapsed yet," Mashovets said.
He recalled that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were about to lose Konantynivka, adding that “this does not correspond to the understanding of the fracture».
«There is no fractureThe enemy has penetrated the Severo-Slobozhansky direction along a fairly wide strip of borderland, occupying five to six kilometers [in depth]. Is this a fracture? It's only in one area. If you take the Sumy region, then there multiple wedging. The enemy has again wedged itself into the Kupyansk direction. Close enough to start doing in Liman what he is doing in Konstantinovka. The enemy's 3rd Army is practically hanging by its ears in the Slavyansk area. Is this a turning point?" – says the colonel.
According to him, attacks on Russian logistics should not be presented as an alleged transfer of initiative to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
«If you successfully burned several fuel tankers on the M14 highway to Crimea along the Azov coast, this does not mean a turning point in the war"Or they recaptured several positions in Stepnogorsk. This isn't a turning point in the war," Mashovets concluded.
