At the same time, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg assured that the Kremlin does not want peace and made a statement about weapons for Ukraine.
In many Western publications, in particular in Foreign Policy, they write that the occupiers may launch a new offensive in the coming days.

“It is not correct to talk about a new offensive”
- The words of Andrey Yusov, representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate, should be mentioned on this topic. He noted that calling the activation of infidels in the East of our state a “new offensive” is very incorrect, because since the beginning of a full-scale invasion – on February 24 – the invaders have been trying to attack and are using all available opportunities for this.
- He also commented on the situation military analyst and reserve major of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Aleksey Getman. He stressed that Ukraine is preparing for a counteroffensive and will be able to resist the invaders, even if they are ready for anything for their goals.
- Actually, our army needs long-range missiles, aircraft and tanks most of all. By the way, President Zelensky made his visit to London just to ensure that these weapons reach Ukraine as soon as possible.
