Ukraine to continue counteroffensive during winter — CJCS Brown
Despite worsening weather conditions,
Ukraine will carry on with offensive
operations during the winter, chairman of U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff
Charles Brown said on Oct. 11.
Brown made the comment after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Defense Minister Rustem Umerov in Brussels.
“We listened to President Zelenskyy and the Defense Minister today, and I see no changes in their plans [to continue the counteroffensive during winter],” said Brown.
General Brown assured that the Joint Chiefs of Staff, under his leadership, will continue to work on providing Ukraine with necessary support.
"Our mission and goals, as well as our support for Ukraine, remain unchanged," he emphasized.
Brown noted that Russian leadership miscalculated when they decided to invade Ukraine. According to his words, Russia "encountered the firm determination of the free people of Ukraine — a nation that did not wish to return to the chains of oppression."
The general is convinced that constant international support for Ukraine, in the form of providing armaments, will enable Ukraine to "protect its people and reclaim its territory."
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
