US officials report an improvement in the situation in Ukraine after Congress passed a major aid package of $61 billion following months of delays, according to the Washington Post.
Although the front line has changed little for over a year, they say Moscow will likely face increasing challenges in maintaining its battlefield advantages.
"Ukraine remains under pressure; this remains a very active conflict. We shouldn't look with rose-colored glasses," said a senior US administration official.
However, according to him, the lines have stabilized, and Russia is incurring extraordinary costs, "forces them to rely on poorly trained forces, which actually plays into Ukraine's hands."
US President Joe Biden stated that Russia is losing the war against Ukraine as it is losing people on the front line, residents are leaving the country, and Ukraine remains "free and independent."
"Ukraine can and will stop Putin," Biden said.
He noted that the US is providing support to Ukraine in partnership with NATO members and a coalition of over 50 countries, and this support will continue.
