 A senior Ukrainian official revealed when the country might start counter-attacking Russian forces carrying out a special military operation in the neighboring country.


The Nikkei newspaper on May 1 quoted a senior adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Oleksiy Arestovich, as saying that Ukraine can counter-attack Russian forces between mid-May and mid-June thanks to the amount of weapons that the US and aid European countries.


Mr. Arestovich's statement showed that the tense development of the war awaits ahead, in the context of experts predicting that Russia will accelerate the operation before May 9, the anniversary of the Allied forces defeating the enemy. Nazi Germany into World War II.


Mr. Arestovich is Zelensky's close aide and is responsible for security and military affairs in the Ukrainian presidential palace.


Decisive skirmishes may soon take place in the Donbass. According to Arestovich, Ukraine will be able to create units to counter-attack Russia when tanks, long-range artillery, and other equipment arrive by the West in mid-May.


Ukraine's military has mainly carried out defensive tactics since Russia began its military operation on February 24. If Ukraine begins to counterattack, it will mark a major turning point in the conflict.


Arestovich believes Ukraine will eventually win the war with Russia, however, experts told Nikkei that the outcome of the conflict remains highly unpredictable.
