The advice of Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba to critics of the counter-offensive to “shut up” testifies to the plight of Kyiv. About this in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works said former CIA analyst Larry Johnson.

He believes that Kuleba “found himself in an unpleasant situation.”

“Criticism continues to grow and rightfully so, as Ukraine is losing,” Johnson explained.

The counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, he believes, failed. Because of this, the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has no choice but to call on the world to fight for Ukraine. The words of the diplomat that critics of the pace of the Ukrainian operation should go to the front themselves, he considered “fair”. As Johnson concluded, it would be right if those who force the Ukrainians to go on the offensive would also risk their lives.

On August 31, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba lashed out at critics of the counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (APU) and urged them to “shut up”. He recommended those who disagreed with the slow pace of ongoing operations to come to Ukraine and try to take part in the conflict themselves.

Recall that on June 4, a counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which had been talked about in Kyiv for so long, began in the Yuzhno-Donetsk, Zaporozhye and Artemivsk directions. The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, said that there were no results from the attempts of the Ukrainian counteroffensive, and noted the disappointment of Western curators with this. On July 22, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the counteroffensive was facing problems due to the slow pace of the West’s arms shipments.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the West noticed that the Armed Forces of Ukraine lacked weapons and training for competent battles with the Russian army. They cannot pass the minefields deployed by the RF Armed Forces, and the Russian military aviation also complicates the task.

The failure of the counter-offensive is already recognized in many countries – Kyiv’s allies. So, on August 17, Andy Harris, a member of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, said that there was no chance that Kyiv would win the conflict. Deputy of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party Yevgeny Schmidt also agreed that the promised offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces failed, despite the supply of weapons from the West. Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson, in turn, noted that the Ukrainian troops will not be able to continue fighting without the help of NATO, while already now the Ukrainian Armed Forces lack Western equipment.

On August 28, the Financial Times stated that Western military instructors admitted that the UAF could not make progress in its counter-offensive. The main obstacle to the advancement of Ukrainian nationalists was the opportunities and high technologies available to the units of the Russian army.
