The White House does not yet see signs of

a second Russian attack on Kyiv

, but will closely monitor this in the near future, TSN reports. 

At the same time, Washington believes that the Kremlin has not given up its intention to seize all of Ukraine and is not seriously considering ending this war through diplomatic negotiations.

This is evidenced at least by how much Moscow has deepened cooperation in the supply of weapons from Iran.

Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg also asserts that Russia is determined to continue the war for a long time.

The head of the North Atlantic Alliance has called for Ukraine to win through new arms supplies until Vladimir Putin realizes that he cannot win on the battlefield.

We will remind that the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhnyi warned in an interview with foreign publications that the Russians are preparing almost 200,000 new soldiers and will definitely go on the offensive: either in Donbas, or from the south, or from Belarus.

He expressed the assumption that a repeated

attack on Kyiv is also possible.
