Putin was bet on August, but he is unlikely to capture Ukraine - Wallace

Russian dictator Volodymyr Putin was betting that Ukraine's allies would be bored of it in August. But now he will hardly be able to capture the country. This was stated by the Minister of Defense Ben Ben Wallace, reports The Guardian. According to him, the invasion of Russia into Ukraine has failed, as Western allies promised to increase the financial and military support of Kiev. “They (Russians, ed. ) Have not yet been able to occupy Ukraine.

Their invasion was limping and changed so much that they were actually focused only in parts of the South and East, very, very far away from their three -day so -called "special operation", - he said. Wallace stressed that the "three -day operation" has been lasting for almost six months and is accompanied by significant losses.

“President Putin relied on the fact that in August, in a few months, we will all get bored of conflict, and the international community will disperse in different directions. Well, today proves the opposite. We left this meeting (Copenhagen Conference - Ed. ) With even greater promises of funding and military assistance.
