“All we're seeing right now is softening of the [Russian] front lines with harassment fire with everything from small arms and rockets to drones and artillery. The aim of that is to stretch out the opposition to thin their forces… they're lengthening the conflict zone and forcing the Russians to expose their supply lines so those can be disrupted and [Ukrainian forces] can encircle smaller groups.”

“Ukraine has made it clear it will not give a running commentary on what is going on as it appears to not want to give up the element of surprise. What is or what may be going on now, well, military analysts have given their view, and their view is that Ukraine is engaged in a series of probing attacks, so-called shaping operations ahead of the counteroffensive. Probing Russian weaknesses, looking for vulnerabilities and, at the same time, essentially keeping Russia guessing.”

“To ensure real security for residents of Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, Luhansk, and Donetsk regions and protect them from shelling, it will be necessary to introduce a demilitarisation zone of 100-120km. Such a zone, which cannot be used or occupied by military forces, would likely require a mandatory international control contingent at the first stage. A demilitarised zone should be a key topic of a post-war settlement.”

“There's a growing realisation in Europe and Ukraine that there's a risk that this war will come to be seen as essentially a European conflict that other countries don't need to be concerned about and don't need to condemn. What we have here is Europe and Ukraine responding to Russia's concerted efforts to create a narrative in the world about the war that does not condemn the war and seeks to maintain a relationship with Russia.”

“On the whole, the operation ended in a strategic failure of our troops. The enemy has NOT been ousted from the Donbas in all the main directions, in most directions - not moved at all. Russian military had exhausted weapon stockpiles, ammunition and manpower that will be necessary for further offensive operations. That's why Bakhmut was given increased attention for the last two months - it was necessary to achieve at least some result 'for propaganda' in order to 'take a breath' afterwards. And so we won, sort of.”

We cannot keep delaying the transfer of weapons to our soldiers … we need modern aircraft. We talked about this. Is there truly any rational motivation in delays concerning modern aircraft? God forbid anyone in the world should see their cities empty because of the threat of terrorist attacks, such as Kramatorsk or dozens of other cities of Donbas.

“There had been fewer attacks along the front line than usual over the past 24 hours. This could be linked to the visit to Moscow by the Chinese leader. Why? Because Putin is hardly likely to put aggression on display on the front lines, particularly as China has spoken in favour of a ceasefire and of an end to the war. So this is likely to continue throughout his two-day visit.”
