Saul David认为俄罗斯不太可能对基辅发起新攻势,这可能是俄罗斯多重战略的一部分,旨在牵制乌克兰军队,并影响西方对乌克兰的支持。他认为俄罗斯在巴赫穆特投入大量资源可能并非为了其有限的战略价值,而是为了牵制乌克兰军队,以便在卢甘斯克地区进行更重要的行动。他还认为,尽管俄罗斯增加了动员兵力,但其军队战斗力已严重受损,这些新兵的实际效用存疑。 Patrick Bishop则认为,尽管俄罗斯动员的士兵可能训练不足、装备简陋,但其兵力优势仍然是乌克兰面临的重大担忧,因为这场战争在很大程度上取决于人员数量和杀伤力。他还指出,维持西方对乌克兰的支持对于这场战争至关重要,而泽连斯基的美国之行旨在保持这种支持。他同时警告说,西方对乌克兰战争的支持取决于公众对乌克兰胜算的信心,夸大俄罗斯的威胁可能会适得其反。
