EU: Russia's war against Ukraine enters new phase

Russia's war against Ukraine has entered a new phase, said Josep Borrell, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Report informs.

"The Ukrainian armed forces' successful counteroffensive has already shifted the strategic balance on the ground. With Europe and its partners set to continue providing support to Ukraine and maintaining sanctions against Russia, the Kremlin is fighting a losing battle.

"The Ukrainian army is making spectacular advances, liberating many towns and villages, and forcing Russian forces to retreat. While it remains to be seen how far the Ukrainian counteroffensive will go, it is already clear that the strategic balance on the ground is shifting," he said.
