The counteroffensive

of the Ukrainian military may begin in the summer, and Ukraine must do everything to ensure that the defense forces are 100% ready.

This was stated by the Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal, who is currently in Washington on a business trip,

informs .

Shmyhal said that the country's government feels pressure from the country's population to launch a counteroffensive.

"However, we do not feel any pressure from our partners and allies. They understand that in order for us to launch a counteroffensive, we need more than one hundred percent readiness," he said.

When asked whether the leak of secret documents would have any effect on the Ukrainian counteroffensive, Shmyhal said that Ukraine would definitely liberate all its territories.

"We have repeatedly proven that we can do it. We are asking our international partners for more military potential, such as tanks, ammunition, planes, and armored vehicles," he said. 

In addition, the Ukrainian Prime Minister stated that Ukraine will suffer great losses due to the war, both economic and human, but this does not mean that Ukrainians do not have the courage to fight for victory.

It will be recalled that it was previously reported that Mykhailo Podolyak, the adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said that the upcoming counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will bring the end of the war closer.

He commented on the upcoming

large-scale counteroffensive of Ukrainian defenders.

According to him, they will liberate the territories occupied by Russia

.

In addition, we previously informed that the United States of America believes that

the Ukrainian military may "significantly fall behind" the initial goals of the expected counteroffensive

.

The reason for this is the problems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the accumulation of troops, ammunition and equipment.
