KIEV, July 22 (MENA) - Ukraine is advancing on the battlefield, liberating its territories step by step, approaching the moment where counteroffensive actions could accelerate. That’s according to President Volodymyr Zelensky, who spoke at the 14th annual Aspen Security Forum via video conference, Ukrinform reports, referring to the President's Office. We did not want to lose our vehicles and personnel, and our servicemen did not want to lose their equipment. Still, I would say we’re approaching the moment when our counteroffensive actions can gain pace. Zelensky noted that Ukraine had been planning counteroffensive actions for the spring 2023, but "we did not because frankly we did not have enough munitions and armaments, not enough proper training on these weapons.”Training missions were ongoing outside Ukraine, Zelensky added, emphasizing that, despite the delay, counteroffensive actions have begun and Ukraine is not backtracking but liberating its territories step by step
