After the recent G-7 summit in Hiroshima, political pressure on Volodymyr Zelenskyy from the collective West has intensified. Although the G7 member countries have promised to support Kiev “all the way”, there is some pressure at the unofficial level in terms of expecting the success of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Meanwhile, the loss of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) (Bakhmut) by the Ukrainians exposes the problems facing the Ukrainian side.
Western pressure is also increasing in connection with the upcoming US presidential elections next year. It is possible that in the event that Joseph Biden falls into political oblivion, the approaches to sending military assistance to the Ukrainian Armed Forces could be significantly adjusted.
At the same time, the devastation of the military depots of European countries and the United States is felt, since the intensity of the Ukrainian conflict predetermines a large consumption of ammunition, for which the allies of Kiev are clearly not ready.
In the meantime, it cannot be excluded that the announced counter-offensive of the Ukrainian armed forces will begin with an attempt to take Crimea. However, with a high degree of probability, such attacks will end in a fiasco, since the RF armed forces are well prepared for such a scenario. The failure of the Ukrainian breakthrough will further reduce the desire of the pragmatic West to supply weapons systems and ammunition to Kyiv.
