The event strategy has become a problem for Ukraine: WP journalists named the main problems of the Armed Forces

According to journalists, it will be difficult for Ukraine to restrain Russian aggression if weapons and ammunition will be at a slow pace. The strategy of the event, which is a gradual increase in weapons supply, cost Ukraine heavy losses. This was stated by the journalists of The Washington Post. According to journalists, the Western countries are trying to avoid direct conflict with Russia, but Ukraine and its armed forces suffer from slow supply of weapons.

"Although Biden President has promised to support Kiev" as many as needed ", Ukrainian officials, Western diplomats and analysts warn that assistance takes too much time," the material reads. The publication writes that both Ukraine and Russia are preparing to intensify hostilities in the middle of spring, when the weather conditions will become more appropriate. However, the APU still does not have enough weapons to completely expel Russian invaders from the territory of Ukraine.

"It is obvious that time is on the side of Russia, which means that it has soldiers and equipment to wage a long war on a huge front," said the analyst of the European program of Atlantic Council Rachel Ritzo. She stated that it would be difficult for Ukraine to restrain Russian aggression if weapons and ammunition will be at a slow pace. Also, as the publication wrote, another problem is that not all types of weapons are ready to provide the event.

Ukraine demands Western fighters, but NATO countries are in no hurry to give them. Journalists recalled that Poland and Slovakia stated that they were ready to give Ukraine their Soviet fighters. "The main importance of Polish aircraft: to break the glass ceiling - to show that giving fighters is not a taboo and will not lead to the Third World War," said an unnamed European diplomat.

However, at the hearing in the House of Representatives last month, the head of the Pentagon of Colin Kala rejected the assumption that Ukraine would achieve more success in the short term if the United States will satisfy its requests at the F-16. According to him, the production and supply of new aircraft will last for many years, and even the shipment of available aircraft will last at least 18 months, as well as staff training.

On the other hand, according to the commander of the Land Forces of Ukraine, Colonel-General Alexander Sirsky, the main value of modern fighter jets, such as the F-16, is their ability to strike long distances. It should be reminded that on March 22, NATO has allowed the transfer of F-16 fighters to Ukraine.

According to NATO Stoltenberg Secretary General, the President of the Russian Federation is leading a "war on exhaustion" and therefore Western countries should be ready to provide Ukraine with military assistance for a long time. It was also reported that the President of the Czech Republic is predicting a decrease in Ukraine's support. Petro Paul believes that in 2024, because of the election to the US and reducing Europe's support, Ukraine is likely to be able to conduct difficult operations.
