This was stated by the head of the Center for Military Legal Research Alexander Musienko on the Freedom TV channel on October 19. According to him, Washington was clearly clear that they were going to support Ukraine and Israel as much as they would need. The military assistance of Kiev in the form of ATACMS is an understanding of the US that the Armed Forces requires fire power to strike on the rear of the enemy. Especially when it comes to winter. Geopolitical events also played a last role.
"After Putin met with Kim Ceni in Vladivostok, it was obvious that North Korea joins the supplies of weapons to Russia and maybe somewhere there will be the backstage there, which in the future will also be able to supply something through the DPRK. It is unclear, but the risks are maintained. Therefore, in view of all these circumstances, it was decided that Ukraine needs to be provided by ATACMS, " - said Alexander Musienko.
Prior to that, the last six months of defense have tested Storm Shadow and Scalp-EG missiles that were handed over to European allies. They showed an effective result and harm the enemy. "And, of course, in order not to give Russia that possible rest, say, for reformatting, to replenish their forces and reserves, to find some external players who can help, in the United States they made the same decision," - summed up Alexander. Musienko.
