Ukraine was bound to lose the territory it held in Russia, said FRANCE 24’s correspondent in Ukraine Emmanuelle Chaze. "At the height of the Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region, the Ukrainian army controlled over 1300 square kilometres of land, and within four months, Russia has managed to reclaim 40% of this land," she said. "This didn’t come as a surprise for the Ukrainians, simply because the Ukrainian army is outnumbered, in men and equipment," she added.
