TV hosts Daniel Tkiie and Sofia Nazarenko and Scott Lucas, professor of international politics, discussed the duration of Russia's war against Ukraine. And what also covers the situation on the front lines? Ukrainian forces now are conducting a counteroffensive in the Donbas region. And this operation, known as Operation Vivaldi. Since it began, Ukraine has reclaimed a total of 176 square kilometers of territory, and this successful operation in the Liman direction has triggered a new wave of criticism among Russian ultranationalist milbloggers, who are increasingly accusing the Russian command of lying about the situation on the fronts, and now they actually admit that the Ukrainian side now shows real advances. In your opinion, what position do Russian forces find themselves in right now, and how would you describe this Vivaldi operation?
