Ukraine risks suffering a strategic defeat in the war if it does not immediately change its approach to conducting hostilities together with its Western partners.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This was stated by<\/a> Bild journalist Julian R\u00f6pke.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

R\u00f6pke believes that the situation in southeastern Ukraine, the Kharkiv and Donetsk regions is getting worse. He claims that Ukrainian and Western structures have not taken into account the lessons of previous combat stages. In his opinion, the thousands of tanks and armored vehicles delivered have not had the expected effect against the backdrop of the rapid development of drones and new types of weapons.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The journalist is convinced that instead of massive support with FPV drones and high-precision missiles, the allies are limited to spot assistance, while the Ukrainian state, in his opinion, is inefficiently using the mobilized resources.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

R\u00f6pke also draws attention to cases of desertion, which, according to him, lead to “empty brigades on paper” and the appearance of gaps on the front. He claims that Ukraine lost 586 sq. km of territory in October and could lose even more in November.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In his opinion, without urgent strategic decisions, Russia will gradually gain an advantage, which will have “catastrophic consequences for the world.”<\/span><\/p>\n

It was previously reported that Ukrainian<\/a> troops achieved new successes in Novopavlivka<\/a> in the Dnipropetrovsk region and expelled most of the Russian occupiers from the eastern part of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a reminder, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi stated that the Pokrovsky direction in the Donetsk region remains a priority within the offensive of the Russian occupiers.<\/a><\/p>\n
