Live from Donetsk (pro-Russian separatist side), Luc Lacroix takes stock of the war in Ukraine, Friday June 3, as the conflict enters its 100th day.

On the 100th day of the war in Ukraine, the situation is particularly tense in the Donbass region. The Russian forces are recording successes there to the detriment of the Ukrainians. After 100 days of conflict, where are we? The West now speaks of a war of attrition.

“20% of Ukrainian territory, according to Volodymyr Zelensky, would now be in Russian hands. This is three times more than before the start of the Russian offensive, because Moscow already controlled Crimea and then, together with its separatist allies, part of the Donbass”explains Luc Lacroix, live from Donetsk. “One Part Only”however tempers the journalist, who specifies that “Donbass is Vladimir Putin’s priority objective”. However, Luc Lacroix reports a conflict, for the time being, “Without winners or losers. The front line overall has been stable for several weeks. There is a lot of fighting, but there are no more spectacular breakthroughs, which means that this conflict could well last”.
