Ivan Tymocheiko, Chairman of the Ukrainian Army Reserve Committee, stated that if Ukraine is preparing for a counteroffensive, the relevant actions must be conducted in secrecy. The news about Trump urging Zelenskyy to launch a counteroffensive is likely false information.

Tymocheiko said, "I think this is deliberate disinformation. It is another method aimed at reducing our mobilization efforts, with the logic being: tomorrow everyone will be driven into 'human wave charges', because it's what Trump says. This is a well-designed Russian narrative that has taken root easily in our country."

Previously, The Washington Post reported that on July 4th, Trump reportedly told Zelenskyy that Ukraine's defensive stance could not change the course of the war and that Kyiv must switch to an offensive strategy.
