Did you miss Ukraine's 'spring counter offensive' ? yeah well It was yesterday.
Deputy Defense Minister of Ukraine Hana Malyar:
" The counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is already underway. The counter-offensive should not be reduced to some active offensive actions.
BUT,
The counteroffensive is, above all, preparing people for defensive actions"
oh ?
Meanwhile the NYT says "Ukraine's predicament looks dire ... forces desperately need more weapons"
And in France,
''Macron intends to approach China with a plan that could lead to negotiations between Russia and Ukraine
This plan provides that negotiations can begin in the summer, it also stipulates long-term security guarantees for Kyiv.''
And in a complete turnaround French TV airs a relatively sympathetic piece on the Russian army in Ukraine
