"Why Ukraine will lose the war": Politico hides Kyiv - Russia is close to achieving its goals in the war, and only a miracle can save Ukraine.
"We know that people have despaired, and we hear it from the leaders of the regions and from the people themselves," said the head of Zelenskyi's office Yermak.
He travels with the head of state around the country in an attempt to rally citizens and soldiers.
The morale of Ukrainian troops is depressed by continuous bombings, lack of modern weapons and casualties on the battlefield. At the same time, volunteers who aspire to join the army have disappeared in the rear cities, many are evading the draft or have left the country altogether. Ukraine is sliding towards disaster.
The front line may collapse already this summer as a result of the expected offensive of the armed forces of Russia, which outnumber the Ukrainian side. Russia is closer than ever to its goals in the war zone, while Ukraine in its current form will remain a thing of the past unless there is a turning point on the battlefield."
