"Supplies are insufficient." Why do the United States do not give Ukraine all the necessary weapons to victory over the Russian Federation - General Bridlava

The retired General and Expert Commander of the NATO forces in Europe Philip Bridlava stated in an interview with NB that supply of weapons from the United States to Ukraine is insufficient. “I agree that the supply of weapons from the US is slow. We promised to give Ukraine everything she needed, but we do not.

There are so many ideas and hypotheses, what are the motives of our behavior, I do not know which ones are true, but we see what we see - supplies are insufficient, ”Bridlava stated in an interview with HB. The US General noted that the Western world is concerned about the growth and development of war in Ukraine and "he desperately wants to stop the conflict with sanctions rather than weapons.

" “Perhaps this is an important reason why the United States, in particular, still does not give Ukraine what it needs to win the war and throw Russian troops outside the country. This is the only thing that explains to me why we still do not supply weapons to Ukraine properly, but we do it endlessly stretching the process, ”he suggested.

The NATO Export Commander in Europe added that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin often speaks of the use of nuclear weapons and the Third World War, since the Russian military campaigns of the Russian army do not achieve its goals. "I think this is a serious factor that holds the West countries from more help to Ukraine, but it should not tie us our hands, we should not lose the initiative," Bridlav said.

Earlier, the US veteran of hostilities, the adviser to the Armed Forces Commissar, Dan Rice stated that the army of the Russian Federation was becoming more difficult to wage war due to the effective use of the Armed Forces of Western weapons. At the end of July, the Chairman of the Joint Committee of US Chiefs of Staff Mark Millie said that the US and their allies would hand over more than 20 volley fire systems to Ukraine.

According to him, the United States has already taught 200 Ukrainian military work with HIMARS, and many others are currently trained. Earlier, the Minister of Defense Alexei Reznikov said that Ukraine needs about 50 western RSLS to stop the occupiers, and about 100 to carry out an effective counter -offensive. On August 9, the deputy chairman of the Pentagon Calus reported that Ukraine received enough HIMARS systems systems.
