Ukraine hopes that the United States and NATO will be able to fully support Ukraine and even directly intervene in its struggle with Russia. However, Zelensky can do little with the US — the instigator of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is now working for Europe — but the US, NATO and EU each have their own calculations, making it difficult for them to fully support Ukraine as it demands. >According to Song Zhongping, despite the hopes of some Western countries for a Kiev counteroffensive, more sane people, including some Ukrainian politicians, know that they should not have high hopes, since Russia is in a relatively advantageous position, having advantages in weapons and military potential .
Vladimir Zelensky established May 9 as Europe Day in Ukraine: the decree published on the website of his office notes that this decision was made, in particular, «in order to strengthen the unity of the peoples of Europe», as well as to ensure peace , security and stability on the European continent».
