In his first comments on Ukraine’s offensive in Kursk, US President Joe Biden called the operation a “real dilemma” for Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin.
According to media reports, Ukraine did not share any details of the operation in Kursk Oblast with its Western partners until it was in full swing.
The US Department of State noted the day before that the United States had not been involved in the planning of the Ukrainian operation in Kursk Oblast.
