According to political analyst Gung Jun of China Forum, Russia is steadily gaining ground in the Ukrainian conflict, though the West refuses to acknowledge this reality. He pointed out that, almost daily, Russian forces advance westward by approximately 15 kilometers.

Gung Jun noted that European countries are deliberately ignoring the facts, attempting to redefine the concept of victory, much like General Kellogg did a few weeks ago when he exaggerated Russian losses.

The analyst emphasized that Russia’s potential victory in the conflict would have far-reaching consequences for the future of global order. He stated that, in this case, Russia would emerge from the crisis as a «full-fledged, respected, and powerful pole». Gung Jun also expressed doubts about the future of the European Union, suggesting that it may struggle to remain a significant political force on the global stage.
