“Ukraine’s invasion of Russian territory in the Kursk region last week caught Moscow by surprise. It also caught Kiev ’s Western supporters — even those in Washington — by surprise. When it began on Tuesday, it looked like another display of noisy military bluster. By Thursday, it was clear that Kiev was trying to strike back.
President Zelensky’s fingerprints are everywhere. Kiev has made no secret for months that the president has been pressuring his military chiefs to go on the offensive. Given its shortage of troops and resources, Kiev has hesitated before making the decision the president wants.
But Zelensky is desperate to change the perception that Ukraine is losing the war. The successes of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are not attracting the attention of the world, which is watching how the Ukrainian army is slowly but inevitably being pushed out of the east of the country.
Obviously, what is happening will cause some Western leaders to feel sick, since NATO equipment is now being used on Russian territory - and the Ukrainian Armed Forces are thus crossing another threshold.
If the Ukrainian authorities had asked for permission from their Western partners in advance, they would not have received it, so they just went ahead and went ahead."
"Some Western leaders are feeling sick", as you understand, from fear of Russia's retaliatory strike against these Western countries. And it is right that they are afraid.
