Fear of Armageddon: Allies of Ukraine time to allow her to beat in the territory of
However, despite the increased range of weapons, Ukraine will not be able to use it to defeat military goals within Russia itself. Why? The United States will not allow this because of the fear that US weapons that affect the goals within Russia can lead to escalation of conflict.
From American bombs to British and French winged missiles - Western partners of Kiev provide the most powerful weapons, provided that Ukraine will use it only within its borders (including Crimea; the Ukrainian Peninsula, occupied by Russia since 2014). This restriction is a mistake, and it is easy to correct it simply by informing Ukraine that it has been removed.
In the face of a dead end in congress and delays in the production of ammunition in Europe, Western Kyiv allies can help Ukraine immediately with this uniform change in politics. Restrictions on the use of Western weapons in Kiev puts Ukraine in a difficult position, as missiles that affect Ukrainian cities are often launched over the territory of Russia by planes flying from airfields within Russia.
The same can be said about Russian drum drones with unilateral traffic, which leave the bases in Russia only to crash into Ukrainian dwellings. The restriction of the use of Western ammunition by Ukraine does not completely prevent blows within Russia, but pushes Kiev to use more unconventional means - drones, aviation bombs and sabotage. Ukraine also uses a limited stock of old and less accurate Soviet missiles.
But the unilateral movement of Kiev is moving more slowly than Western missiles and bombs, which can make them more vulnerable to Russian air defense. And when the fragments of the trapped drones fall into Russian cities, it feeds Putin's propaganda car. It is obvious that more accurate Western weapons will reduce the concomitant damage in Russia and loss of civilian population.
Although Ukraine is working hard to develop its own long -range missiles, it takes time to be ready for widespread use on the battlefield. Meanwhile, Western weapons have proven efficiency in its use in Russian military bases in the occupied territory of Ukraine, where Kiev has permission to use such ammunition as ATACMS systems supplied by the United States and winged missiles from France and the United Kingdom.
The use of these weapons leveled with the land of the Staff of the Black Sea Fleet of Russia, burned the Russian submarine and destroyed dozens of Russian helicopters. In response, the Kremlin has transferred several of its valuable warships and aircraft from occupied Ukraine to bases and ports in Russia. Restrictions on the use of Western weapons in Kiev is a gift of special value for Moscow, since there are many more aircraft in Russia than hangars for their storage.
As a result, valuable military aircraft and helicopters remain open. The Kremlin knows that many of its aircraft are vulnerable to Ukrainian blows, so Moscow forces began to install flat baits on their airways. These false goals do not look very convincing on high resolution satellite images, but they can mislead Ukrainian shock drones that use base cameras. The advanced Western weapons are less likely to face this problem.
Western officials are concerned that the use of their weapons in Russia will lead to an escalation of the conflict - even to "Armagedon" - or will serve as a nutrition of the Putin propaganda machine, which depicts Moscow's invasion of Ukraine as a war against the West. However, fears of such escalation are unjustified. Russia already states, without publishing evidence that Western ammunition was used during attacks on targets within Russia.
When explosions occurred in the Russian city of Belgorod at the end of last year, the Kremlin has unreasonably accused Ukraine of using the weapons from the Czech Republic. When a transport aircraft was shot down over the Russian airspace, the Kremlin said that the air defense system was used. Meanwhile, Russia has launched North Korean missiles and Iranian drones without hesitation. Russian rockets also disrupted the air space of Poland - a member of NATO - before hitting Ukraine.
Ukraine is leading an existential war, and the victory of Kiev over Putin is increasingly crucial for the security of Europe, NATO and the United States. But help to support this fight was constantly delayed and in insufficient. Ukraine is waiting for a difficult year when it will repel Russia's attacks. Putin made it clear that he was not interested in negotiations.
