NATO sees no signs of relaxation in the Ukraine war. “According to our intelligence information, Russian units are not retreating, but repositioning themselves.” said NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg Thursday in Brussels. Russia is trying to regroup its troops organize supplies and intensify the offensive in Donbass. At the same time, pressure on the capital Kiev and other cities will be maintained.

“We can expect more offensive actions that will bring even more suffering,” Stoltenberg said.

So far, however, no real change has been seen in Russia’s primary objective, a military success. That’s why you need to be prepared to continue supporting Ukraine.

Immediately afterwards, doubts arose in the West about whether such promises were credible.
