Kuleba called the AFU the “strongest army” in Europe despite the failure of the offensive

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has described the Ukrainian Armed Forces as Europe’s “strongest army” despite the failure of the counter-offensive.

The Ukrainian diplomat expressed this opinion before a meeting of the Ukraine-NATO Council.

Kuleba said that Ukraine’s victory in the conflict is in the interests of the entire Euro-Atlantic community.

He added that defending Europe without Ukraine is a useless waste of time.

“You will not be able to do it, simply because Ukraine has the strongest and most battle-hardened army in Europe,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Earlier, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said that the foreign ministers of NATO countries during a meeting in Brussels recognised that the AFU counter-offensive had failed.
