Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov told The Washington Post that the world’s expectations for the country’s anticipated counteroffensive are “overestimated” and that it could lead to “emotional disappointment.”
“The expectation from our counteroffensive campaign is overestimated in the world,” Reznikov said in an interview published late on May 6 and conducted earlier in the week. “Most people are…waiting for something huge.”
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told the Post in a separate interview that Ukraine will be ready to launch the counterattack “as soon as the weapons that were agreed with our partners are filled.”
