Oleksander Kraiev, Director of the North America Program at the Ukrainian Prism Foreign Policy Council, comments on the counteroffensive with a view from Ukraine: restoring Ukraine's 1991 territorial borders, why taking back Crimea is increasingly realistic, Russia's logistical challenges, how Russian media channels are discussing the counteroffensive, and how Ukraine's more modern combat style compares to Russia's soviet-style approach. 
"If previously we were hoping for the plan minimum - to restore the borders as of 24 February - now we are striving for the liberation of the whole Ukrainian territories - and restoration of the borders as of 1991"
"The Russian offensive in February / March was more of a Soviet-style offensive... whereas the Ukrainian counterattack is more of a NATO-style offensive... Russia was not prepared for this style of combat"
