VIDEO – While the Russian forces maintain their pressure in the Donbass and the Ukrainians counter-attack in Kharkiv, Le Figaro takes stock of the military and geopolitical situation, in video and supporting maps.


On the 78th day of the "Russian military operation" in Ukraine, Moscow still does not speak of "war", and yet it promises to be long.

The Russians, who are concentrating their offensive in the Donbass in the east of the country, are advancing, but very slowly.

The Ukrainians, for their part, successfully launched a counter-offensive just above, in the Kharkiv region.

They are notably helped by the supply of Western heavy weapons, particularly in terms of artillery.

Faced with this conflict which appears more and more symmetrical between the two co-belligerents, Vladimir Putin did not sound the general mobilization on May 9 during the Russian celebration of the victory against Nazi Germany.
