Defence Secretary Ben Wallace spoke at a news conference following the international Donors Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark.

He said, "Russia are starting to fail in many areas - they are unlikely to ever succeed in occupying Ukraine, their invasion has faltered and has been constantly remodified."

The "three-day special operation has become 150 days".

    A day without being in denial, is a day wasted.
  • This is probably not the best time to start believing the media is telling the truth.
  • Wishful thinking!!! We have been hearing these BS since March.
  • What a fool to talk like that , the real energy is gas and petrol , printing money doesn't resolve the problem .

    I hope these countries and their officials remember what Russia's Putin has done now in 5 and 10 years and thereafter. These countries cozied up to Russia even after Putin's prior aggression in Crimea and other eastern European countries that broke off from the Soviet Union and then Russia. These officials need to keep on these sanctions until Putin is gone and Russia has backed down from their aggression.

    They've been saying this for last 6 months. I don't believe a word of this.
  • Russia failing again? This is all I have heard since March. Yet Russia continues to make progress.
  • March: russia is failing April: russia is failing May: russia is failing .... August: ?🐱🐱
  • Didn't they say this like a few months ago? Correct me if I'm wrong

    It's good to see that western countries recognize the demand for a steady flow of military support. US is doing it already in a pretty steady rhythm. And if every western country does its little share of support, the overall result of all together is the guarantee for Ukraine to do their fight. And they fight really damn well !

    The land Ukraine has retaken is equivalent to that strip on Ben Wallace's head. The ratio is 1:1
