but this has become a real challenge, Joe Biden said at a briefing in Kyiv. According to him, the war against Ukraine has become the largest ground-based armed conflict in the last three-quarters of a century. However, Biden has no doubt that Ukraine will continue to win on the battlefield. The American president confirmed that the West will support Ukraine as long as necessary. Biden stated that Putin’s military campaign is failing: Russian troops have lost half of the territories they had captured, and now the occupiers are suffering heavy losses. Also, many citizens are leaving Russia because they do not see a future there. In addition, the Russian economy is declining, isolated, and facing mounting difficulties. “Ukraine used to be weak, and the West was divided. That’s what Putin based his actions on. He thought he would last longer than us, I don’t think he thinks so now,” said the American president.
