The Inspector General of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr), Eberhard Zorn, has pointed to the danger of assessing the recent “successes” of the Ukrainian army as a full-scale counteroffensive. He said this in an interview with Focus.
Zorn pointed out that he was “careful with the terms”. At best, in his view, we are talking about “counterattacks, with which one can take control of populated areas or individual sections of the front, but not push Russia back on a broad front.”
“Even the approaching winter will not reduce the suffering – on the contrary,” the Bundeswehr inspector general is convinced.
He also expressed doubt that the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) have enough forces for a counter-offensive. “They need a superiority of at least three to one,” Zorn concluded.
We shall remind you that the German newspaper Die Welt earlier acknowledged Kiev’s de facto defeat after six months of the Russian special operation in Ukraine due to the huge territorial, human and material losses, which continue to grow continuously, as well as an uncoordinated position of the West unable to really help defeat Russia.
