Kuleba Says 4-Year War Is Shifting as Ukraine Expands Strikes Inside Russia

Summary
Dmytro Kuleba said on the latest GZERO World podcast that Ukraine is trying to change the war’s trajectory by taking increasingly sophisticated strikes deep into Russian territory.
Those attacks are meant to raise the cost for Moscow by forcing it to defend military bases, energy infrastructure and symbolic targets including Crimea, rather than relying on a long war of attrition.
Kuleba argued that strategy is gaining support as NATO backing has strengthened, Europe expands defense cooperation with Kyiv, and Donald Trump has adopted a warmer tone toward Ukraine than months ago.
The discussion framed the conflict as a test of Russia’s more than 4-year bet that superior manpower, resources and tolerance for casualties would outlast Ukraine and its Western allies.
