Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief Seeks Breakthrough in Stalemate with Russia

Ukraine's top commander, Gen. Valery Zaluzhny, has admitted that the war with Russia has reached a stalemate, with no significant breakthrough expected. He emphasized the need for advances in technological warfare, including air superiority and improved artillery fire, to break the deadlock. Zaluzhny also acknowledged underestimating Russia's willingness to sacrifice troops and prolong the war. The fighting has shifted to a positional form, with both sides using modern technology and precision weapons to prevent breaching enemy lines. The assessment comes at a critical time for Ukraine, as Western support wanes and concerns grow about the diversion of attention and weapons to other conflicts.
