Western experts suggest that if the Russians hold their line of defense until Christmas, it will be their success. However, it will be very difficult for the invaders to maintain their positions.
Such an opinion Channel 24military expert Petr Chernik said. According to him, the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has a significant impact on the ability of the Russians to hold the current line of defense.
A difficult task for the Russians
However, it is difficult to predict how events at the front will develop further.
This is a very difficult task for the Russians (holding positions at the front – 24 channel). However, predicting what the front line will be like is a very thankless task, Chernik noted.
The military expert noted that war is a dynamic and complex phenomenon. Much in the course of hostilities depends on the concentration of forces and means.
“In certain areas, you can approach the front with so many personnel that you can make large breakthrough offensive operation,” Chernik said.
How Ukrainians can help the Armed Forces of Ukraine before winter
Therefore, according to a military expert, one should be careful about forecasts about how the front line might look in January 2023. At the same time, Ukrainians should take care to help our military at the front as much as possible.
The cold weather is coming, and we have no right treat our soldiers the way Russians treat their own, who believe that they are cattle,” Chernik emphasized.
He noted that with the approach of winter it is very important to cover the actual needs of the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“I have traveled this path myself and I know how necessary it is in the cold season,” he added.

How the situation at the front could develop: briefly
- International analysts suggest that ground combat operations will still slow down closer to the cold months. And that is why we should expect activity over the next weeks. According to observers, they “will be vital.”
- It is important for the Ukrainian military to actively advance before the onset of winter. Indeed, in the future, Russia may have additional opportunities for attacks at the front.
- Under appropriate conditions, Russia's war against Ukraine may turn into a “frozen” conflict. According to military expert Petr Chernik, there are examples in Europe of a temporary cessation of wars in this scenario.
