According to Observer Network , British media Reuters quoted Ukrainian Presidential spokesperson saying that Ukrainian President Zelensky had a traffic accident in Ukrainian capital Kiev . The injury was not serious, but his injury was still concerned by all parties.
Ukrainian army launched a counterattack against Russia in Khlsong, Kharkov and other places. When the situation in Russia and Ukraine escalated, Ukrainian President Zelensky suffered a traffic accident, and his injuries attracted attention from all parties. With the support of Western public opinion, Zelensky has great exposure in various international occasions. His speech range is not limited to the Davos Forum, Cannes Film Festival , United Nations , and parliaments of Western countries. Zelensky's public opinion influence further amplifies his role in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Before the car accident in Kiev with a "not seriously injured" situation, Zelensky went to Kharkiv and other places to inspect the land recovered by Ukraine during the counterattack against Russia and delivered a speech.
Zelensky also previously pointed out that the military actions taken by the Ukrainian army since September have recovered a total of 6,000 square kilometers of land. Against this background, the front push of Kharkov to the Ukrainian army may become a turning point in the eastern line of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The car accident in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, cast a layer of haze on the possible prospect of "Ukraine ushering in a turning point in conflict".
Due to the arrival of autumn and winter in Europe, the willingness of the United States and the West, especially European countries to transport arms by Ukraine, suddenly declined. Throughout July, European countries did not provide a new list of support to Ukraine, but were only implementing some of the arms promises made before. Since September, European countries have launched oil and gas price limits on Russia driven by the United States. With Russia's announcement of interrupting the operation of the Nord Stream 1 natural gas pipeline and Germany's "retreat", at least in terms of natural gas price limits on Russia have failed. The energy dilemma in Europe becomes increasingly difficult to resolve, and the support of European countries for Ukraine will be reduced.
Ukraine launched a "big counterattack" against Russia since the end of August. It is the action taken in this context. Ukraine gathered various types of equipment provided by Europe, the United States and Britain, and mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops from Kherson in the south to Kharkov in the northeast to launch a full-line counterattack against Russia. In the direction of Kherson, he encountered a "defensive counterattack" of the Russian army defending the solid and favorable terrain and the attack from the aerospace army. The two sides were in a stalemate. Judging from the information previously disclosed by the media, the Ukrainian army's firepower density in this direction cannot be compared with the Russian army. In addition, the suddenness of the assault caused more damage to the Russian army than the Russian army under the circumstances of Russia's plan.
In the direction of Kharkov, where the Russian army has weak military configuration, the Ukrainian army has made a lot of progress. Ukrainian President Zelensky's "6,000 square kilometers of land" was mostly recovered in this direction, and the Russian army retreated to Donetsk to regroup. Judging from the acquisition of a large number of settlements and the advancement of the front from Kharkov to Ijium, it is no problem for the Ukrainian military operations in the direction of Kharkov to call it a "great victory", but the progress of the Ukrainian army is obviously not enough to change the basic situation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
Donetsk, Lugansk , Mariupol , Kherson, this clamp-shaped area from north to south to west is still firmly controlled by the Russian army. If the Ukrainian army exhausts too much troops and stocks of weapons in the process of "get the land", it may face an unfavorable situation of "no troops to adjust" in the offensive that the Russian army may launch from multiple directions.
The battlefield situation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is far from being said to be "occupied" by the Ukrainian army. Ukrainian President Zelensky had a car accident during this period, which may cause damage to the morale of the Ukrainian army, and may cause losses to the Ukrainian army's counterattack advantage with full support from Western public opinion and Western intelligence networks. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has caused huge losses to both sides. Reconciliation is the direction of this conflict under the premise of respecting each other's reasonable security concerns.
