    They were indeed about to launch a counter offensive and indeed did. In 2023. They did not get almost any of the equipment the west had promised to supply for bringing the offence plans to reality, so the counter offensive got botched. In 2024 there was no talk of a counter offensive. Remember that the last two quarters of 2024 Ukraine got zero military help from USA.

    You’re mixing up the years.

    Also, the several different claims about different cancers were guessed by different people.

      Ukraine got tremendous military help from the USA throughout last year. It’s not because more funds had not been appropriated that the already appropriated funds and military assistance wasn’t provided.

      I am not mixing the years, there were also a counter-offensives in 2024.

            Kharkiv? That was in 2022, wasn’t it? And the incursion into the Kursk province has been a better success than expected. What had you thought it would result with? It became the most important part of the front.for Ukraine. I’d say it is a great success, but how is it a counterattack? And how does that show that something big was promised but failed? What had been promised, to your knowledge?

              Russia has been slowly gaining territory back in Kursk. In June 2024, Ukrainian forces began small-scale counterattacks in the Kharkiv region and recaptured a settlement.
