New Delhi: President Vladimir Zelenskyy’s aide Mikhail Podoliak on Tuesday said the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine is not a “Hollywood movie” and one should not expect the looming Kiev counteroffensive to be a turning point in it. 

“When we talk about a counteroffensive, that it will cause a collapse for Russia or, conversely, there will be no gains for Ukraine, it looks like we are in a Hollywood movie, where a big battle for Middle-earth begins and one battle for Gondor will decide everything. 

Things do not happen like that,” a Russia Today report quoted Podoliak as saying. The long-hyped offensive is a set of “many events,” some of which may be “more successful, while others – less (successful),” he added.
