Quote from Freuding: “This means that the Ukrainian army is prepared to concede limited territory to preserve its own forces and prepare anew for defence.”
Details: Freuding noted that in recent weeks and months, the defensive tactics of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have become more flexible, with defence being conducted more dynamically.
At the same time, he said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces maintain control of the situation even during withdrawal, which is being carried out in a very orderly manner.
Background:
- In early February, Freuding mentioned that Ukraine needed mobilisation to replenish battlefield losses and rebuild combat units.
- He also believes the Ukrainian military can end the war by defeating Russia on the battlefield.
