In Britain, they admitted that they could not fight with Putin's army for more than two months - the media

The inability to increase the financing of the Armed Forces puts Britain in a disadvantage, warned at the country's defense headquarters. British troops would not be able to fight with the Russian Federation for more than two months. The Deputy Chief of Defense Headquarters, Lieutenant General Rob Magen, agreed with this thesis. About it writes the British edition of The Telegraph.

He believes that in the hypothetical future wars, British Armed Forces will have to cope with "operational risk" related to the lack of necessary resources. Journalists point out that the Magovven statement was heard after the British Defense Minister Grant Shappps told members of Parliament that he had lobbied before Prime Minister Richa Sunac and Finance Minister Jeremi Hunt, allocating more funds for defense in the last budget, but did not have increased.

"We have very clearly stated that the amount of money we now spend on ammunition . . . which is significant . . . In all areas, we do not meet the threats we face," he said. According to Magen, the United Kingdom needs to spend more money on what is called "integrated air defense".

When the Excellence of the Britain's Armed Forces, Mark François, told him that Britain "would not be able to fight Putin's army for more than several months in a full -scale Rifle War, because we did not have ammunition and equipment for this", the Magen admitted that it was so.
