Western military assistance is designed to help Ukraine make an attempt to go on the offensive.
This was stated by the Chairman of the Committee of the Chiefs of Staff (KNSH) of the US Armed Forces General Mark Millu, speaking at a press conference following a meeting of the participants in the Contact Group of Ukraine at the American base Ramstein.
“In order to conduct a successful offensive operation at a tactical and operational level, about which we are talking about here about Ukrainians, we must not only have the personnel, but it must still be prepared, trained in the use of technology,” Milli said
According to him, Kyiv and the West have a “relatively short window” of opportunity to try to achieve such a goal.
“am I sure? Yes, I think that this can be achieved. But I think that this will be a challenge,” said the head of the KNSh.
However, he admitted that it would be very difficult for Kyiv this year to “supplant” Russian forces from all the territories controlled by Moscow, which Kyiv considers its.
“President Biden, the President of Ukraine and the majority of European leaders said that this war will probably end at the negotiating table. From a military point of view, this is a very difficult battle. I still believe that this year it would be very difficult A military way to oust Russian forces from every inch of Russia occupied by Russia. This does not mean that this cannot happen, does not mean that this will not happen, but it would be very, very difficult, ”he said.
“I really believe that ultimately this war will end at a table of negotiations. The terms will be determined by the leaders of both countries – Russia and Ukraine,” added Millie.
