Zelensky's counterattack will not change the course of the war, The Sunday Times

The latest attack on Russia's Kursk region was a bold but controversial move by Ukraine. According to The Sunday Times, this counterattack, initiated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi, carries many risks and may have limited impact on the overall course of the war.

As the article emphasizes, in this case "fingerprints" of Zelenskyi are visible everywhere.

"It has been no secret in Kyiv for many months that the president is pressuring his military commanders to launch a summer offensive. But, given Ukraine's problems with people and resources, they hesitated," the article says.

It is obvious that Kyiv is now ready to risk valuable soldiers and equipment in order to take at least some position here. Zelenskyi's critics will argue that this is an irrational use of both soldiers' lives and heavy equipment, which Ukraine desperately needs further south, in Donbas.

But the article also notes that "this counterattack will not be able to turn the tide of the war."
