Bild: Ukrainian armed units switch to a controlled retreat

16.12.2023, Berlin.

The Ukrainian General Staff revised its strategy, abandoning attempts to reclaim territory from Russia, German Bild wrote on December 16.

“There are no tasks to advance or even to hold areas that are disadvantageous for defense. What we are witnessing is, on the whole, a controlled retreat with combat,” the statement reads.

It is noted that the Ukrainian armed units seek to inflict as much damage as possible on the Russian forces, and during the retreat they mined the territory. The Ukrainian armed units also expect to go on the attack again after receiving ATACMS or Taurus missiles, as well as aircraft F-16 or JAS 39.

The Ukrainian regime launched a counter-offensive on June 4, attacking in three directions at once. At the same time, they could not achieve significant results in any of them. According to the Russian side, the Ukrainian side lost 747 tanks and 2,300 armoured vehicles.

Earlier, the US channel Fox News reported that strategists in Washington intended to create a forever war out of the Ukrainian conflict. They expect to prolong the hot confrontation for at least several years.
