Ukraine Beyond the battle.
I would like to share the contents of the article carried in The Sankei News posted on April 22, which was contributed by Mr. Edward Nicolae Luttwak, U.S. historian, who has served as a consultant to the National Security Council (NSC) and other organizations, and is currently a senior advisor to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a policy research institute.
The situation in Ukraine has entered a new phase after Ukrainian military units backed by the United States and Europe pushed back an attack by Russian forces on the capital city of Kiev.
The focus will now be on the offensive and defense in the Donbass region in eastern Ukraine, but what is clear is that Russian President Vladimir Putin has suffered a tremendous blow from the war he has brought about.
