The Israel-Gaza war is “taking away the focus” from the conflict in Ukraine, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted.

He said this was “one of the goals” of Russia, which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

And he denied that fighting in Ukraine had reached a stalemate, despite a recent assessment to this effect by the country’s top military general.

Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the south has so far made little headway.

This has prompted fears of war fatigue among Kyiv’s Western allies, with suggestions of growing reluctance in some capitals to continue giving Ukraine advanced weapons and funds.

    Let us know by what time you think China will invade Taiwan.

    When that year comes and the invasion doesn’t happen, either admit you’re wrong or double-down.

      By 2080 either China will invade Taiwan or have a completely different government. There is no way the CCP doesn’t invade Taiwan by then
