US Believes That Ukraine Can Hold Russian Territory for Months
- Seized terrain in Kursk could be a factor in talks with Moscow
- Ukrainian forces are now getting a steady supply of ammunition
The US assesses that Ukraine will be able to hold onto the territory its forces have claimed in Russia’s Kursk region for at least several months if not longer, according to senior American officials.
Ukraine so far hasn’t faced any significant problems getting supplies to the Kursk area as Russian forces have only launched limited counterattacks and focused instead on advances in Ukraine’s east, according to the officials, who spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity Wednesday.
