Blinken says too soon to say where Ukraine counteroffensive is going

WASHINGTON: US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday said it was too soon to say exactly where Ukraine's counteroffensive was going, but said Washington was confident that Kyiv will continue to have success in trying to take back its land seized by Russia.
Speaking at a press conference in Washington, Blinken said the United States was determined to maximize its support for Ukraine so it can succeed on the battlefield. A "robust" package of political and practical support for Ukraine, Blinken added, can also be expected at the upcoming NATO summit in Vilnius.
