Ukraine as a Battlefield – actual results, and what next?

Ukrainian online networks are all abuzz with reports about the allegedly triumphant progress of Operation "Vivaldi" led by 3rd Army Corps commander Andriy Biletsky* and his colleague Denys Prokopenko,* who have "halted Russia advance in the Donbass."

The odd logic of the Ukrainian crisis 10:31 19.08.2026 Denis Baturin

The odd logic of the Ukrainian crisis

A modern-day war is waged not only with new weapons and technologies. It also creates a new logic.
