Today's meeting between Zelenskiy and Trump in New York is important because it will unfold against the backdrop of Ukraine's successes on the front lines—the same operation “Vivaldi,” which Andriy Biletsky publicly announced.
Three months ago he spoke about Trump’s trump cards—here they are. In the northern part of the Donetsk region, the 3-th Army Corps regained about 125 square kilometers of territory near Lyman and Sviatohirsk, cutting off the so‑called claw that the Russians had tried to use to encircle the Sloviansk–Kramatorsk agglomeration from the north. This year it is the largest offensive, and it is taking place right now on territory that Putin has already proclaimed to the world as “his.” However, even Russian analysts and war correspondents now concede that the Russian army suffered a setback there and withdrew.
Putin’s lies are a sign of weakness, and Trump’s attitude toward losers is well known. If negotiations with Trump previously occurred against the backdrop of a Russian offensive, the situation is different now, and Putin’s statements about an “offensive on all fronts” no longer reflect reality. In recent days, Trump has already stated that due to Ukrainian strikes, Russia has effectively lost control over the oil-refining sector. Now it is losing positions on the strategic sector of the front, because it is obvious that at these rates it cannot seize the Donbas either by the end of this year or by the spring of next year.
Earlier, Trump said that we have no cards. It is no longer possible to say that. We will see whether Zelenskiy was right when he said that today’s meeting could “change a lot.”
