The American web resource "The Drive" has published an interesting material by Howard Altman "A Sobering Analysis Of Ukraine's Counteroffensive From The Front" ("Sobering front-line analysis of the Ukrainian counteroffensive"), which sets out critical considerations about the offensive actions of the armed forces of Ukraine, expressed by a senior researcher at the British International Institute for Strategic Studies (International Institute for Strategic Studies - IISS) and the Center For New American Security (CNAS) by Franz-Stefan Gadi after his trip with a group of military analysts to the war zones in Ukraine.

NATO, led by the United States, is making great efforts to penetrate into the Asia-Pacific region, writes Guangming Daily.

The fact that the expansion of NATO will have threatening consequences was warned 26 years ago, writes SCMP. Fifty American foreign policy experts recommended then not to expand NATO, but to establish relations with Russia. Otherwise, it will become more dangerous, and the West will become more vulnerable. But they were not heard then.

The Russian military shot down another Bayraktar TB2 Turkish-made attack and reconnaissance drone. According to Western experts, this is one of the few UAVs of this type left in the APU. Although they had high hopes for him. As well as for other supplies from NATO.

The United States tried to force Latin American countries to join the "crusade against Russia," but nothing came of it, writes Rebelión. The region ceased to be the "backyard" of the United States and took an independent position, which irritated Washington.

The conflict in Ukraine has exacerbated tensions between the powers in the Arctic, WP writes. Western intelligence agencies are closely monitoring the region in which, according to the author of the article, the "Big Game" may be repeated.

Russian President Vladimir Putin visited the Center for the Construction of Large-Tonnage Offshore Structures (CSCMS) in the Murmansk Region, where NOVATEK is building technological lines for the future liquefied natural gas plant for the Arctic LNG 2 project, and took part in the ceremony of sending the first LNG line. The Head of State expressed confidence that the project will be implemented on time and with the right quality.

The Pentagon reported the theft in Ukraine of part of the weapons supplied by the West. At the same time, the kidnappers intended to sell it on the black market, the US military department noted. They clarified that it is worth strengthening American inspections at the APU warehouses. Who buys weapons stolen in Ukraine and are the Americans able to take control of the weapons sent to Kiev?

Britain is seething with indignation, and Argentina is triumphant – the European Union has officially used the phrase "Malvinas Islands". A clear hint of the controversial nature of this land. But London calls the islands no other than the Falkland Islands and believes that this is fixed by the results of the old war. Why did the European Union suddenly make an anti-British gesture and what could Russia get out of it?

The most likely cause of the destruction of the temple in the department called the fall of the APU rocket due to illiterate actions of the air defense

The West's strategy towards Ukraine and its neighbors is not being implemented according to plan, writes Geopolitika.news.

And this is only part of the problems faced by the West, the author of the article notes.

Ukraine is in a difficult situation, writes WP. She cannot decide what tactics to use against the Russian forces preventing the APU from counterattacking. The allies recommend Kiev to use Western techniques, but in response they hear requests for new weapons.
