Ihor Tyshkevych, a Ukrainian expert on international and domestic politics, noted that the political framework in which Ukraine must operate is changing. He stated this on Espreso TV.

"Ukraine has succeeded in convincing its partners, who previously prohibited the use of Western weapons against Russian territory, to allow such strikes. We now see Western weapons, including not only missiles but also armored vehicles, entering Russian territory. This is one of the first conclusions we can draw from the start of the operation in the Kursk region. It indicates a shift in the political balance or framework within which Ukraine must operate," Tyshkevych said.

According to him, President Zelenskyy and Ukraine's partners recognize the possibility of peace talks with Russia.

"But the question arises regarding who will be at the negotiating table and their positions. Russia might attempt to replicate the Minsk negotiations, which means leaving some occupied Ukrainian territories out of the discussions. When the Minsk agreements were signed, Crimea was excluded from the negotiations, and only Donbas was addressed. If Ukraine controls part of Russia, and Russia proposes leaving some occupied Ukrainian territory out of the negotiations, Ukraine might counter with a similar proposal - suggesting that the Kursk region also be excluded from the talks," Tyshkevych emphasized.

Politico media outlet writes that the large-scale offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region is supported by Kyiv's allies in the West. There are no signs that the partners are pressuring Ukraine to soften its advance into Russian territory. The article notes that even cautious Germany, which refused to take risks, not wanting to provoke Russian president Putin, especially when it came to arms supplies to Kyiv, is not flashing any red lights regarding the operation of Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region. "Ukraine has the right to self-defense, enshrined in international law. This is not limited to its territory ," the German Foreign Ministry said in a comment to the publication's journalists.

The publication notes that it is not yet clear what the long-term goals of the Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region are, but four days after it began, there is no sign of an imminent end to hostilities in the territory. Moreover, in the early hours of Friday, Ukraine launched a large-scale drone attack on the infrastructure of the Lipetsk region, deep in Russia, hitting a key air base.
