"For the first time since World War II": Bloomberg evaluates the operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kursk region.


The Ukrainian army carried out a successful raid in the Kursk region, which unexpectedly surprised Russia. This operation revealed the weakness of the Russian border defense and undermined Vladimir Putin's positions. According to Bloomberg, this raid is the first invasion of another country's army on Russian territory since World War II.
Ukraine's invasion has damaged Putin's image as a defender of Russians and has shown that the war initiated by the Russian Federation in Ukraine is increasingly spilling over onto Russian territory. According to experts, this incident will strengthen Kyiv's arguments about the importance of supporting allies who are not afraid of escalation from the Kremlin and will allow Ukraine to fight Putin by any means necessary to end the war as quickly as possible.
