of course we also had the ukraine recovery conference were a lot more money was being pledged, most ofhe eu. your thoughts on the outlook for ukraine at this point? i think again, militarily that is still the key thing for ukraine and that means making progress on the battlefield very hard to do as we are seeing, the russians have really shored up their defences. in terms of their defences. in terms of their economy, ukraine will remain reliant for a long time. for its budget deficit on western donorfarms. for its budget deficit on western donor farms. that money has to keep pouring into ukraine to keep the economy stable. it is not business as usual in ukraine that it won't be for a very, very long time. and at the moment, unless you can —— ukraine can make progress on the battlefield it means the economy without that western money will struggle and we don't know how long this is going to last. we must bet on the fact that even with the instability in russia this is still going to be a very, very long warfor ukraine and still going to be a very, very long war for ukraine and with last

confriends, i.e., the recovery conference of ukraine, and they will talk, in particulardirections in which ukraine can already accumulate reserves of resources for recovery , for example, in liberated settlements, or with regard to some such industries, such as protection of the infrastructure we already know from the experience of last year this winter that this issue is extremely important, moreover, there are already previous ones even the figures that, unfortunately , grow every day, as of march, the world bank called the figure 411 billion dollars this is the amount that ukraine will need for post-war reconstruction, i assume that at this very conference the updated figures may be announced, because you must agree that since march , at least, the russians have blown up the dam of the kakhovka hydroelectric power station, which obviously makes the process of rebuilding ukraine very expensive. we expect that on the first day conference , as far as we know, there will be welcome speeches by the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi , the british prime minister rishi

may well decimate the tory party so i think the answer is these rate rises day two of the ukraine recovery conferencerwise — to help re—build the country. but one of the reasons why those haven't been bigger is that many companies are reluctant to invest while the bombs are still falling. many supporters of ukraine had cherished the hope that this summer might see a military offensive that could liberate occupied territory and lead to peace. it started early this month. the western consensus about ukraine's counter—offensive seems to be that it's too early to say whether it's succeeding. so what are the ukrainians trying to achieve? and how long will it take to see the limits of how far they've got? the main effort we've seen so far is a broad—front attack across this space, about 150 kilometers wide. the aim is to breach minefields, advance and draw out russian artillery into action, so it can be found and destroyed. this incident last week was perhaps the ukrainians' most spectacular success so far in that tactic, seeing the rapid destruction of five modern russian self—propelled guns. they've knoc
