Jakub Grygiel: For now Ukraine is widely expected to conduct a counteroffensive in the next weeks.
He says it is risky for Ukraine to direct its limited forces against the Crimean peninsula that Russia has controlled for almost a decade, and most likely girded with entrenched defensive positions.
He argues a Ukrainian counteroffensive may be very difficult and costly, degrading already scant and tired forces that are better used elsewhere.
Grygeriel: Letting Russia hold Crimea, for now, has the additional benefit of leaving a target for future deterrent purposes.
