"War Tensions: Ukraine and Aspen Brace for Critical Moment"

The Aspen Security Forum, a gathering of influential policymakers and think-tankers, recently focused on the progress of the war in Ukraine. President Zelensky expressed gratitude and requested more help, acknowledging the critical period the country is facing. The counter-offensive in Ukraine has been slower than expected due to delays in weapons, ammunition, and training, allowing Russia to strengthen its defenses. There is tension over US military aid, with differing opinions on its sufficiency. The next few weeks and months will be pivotal in determining Ukraine's military breakthrough, the depth of cracks within Russia, and the sustainability of Western support.
