The United States plans to change the dynamics of hostilities in Ukraine

2

The weapons systems supplied to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine will soon change the state of affairs on the fronts of the Ukrainian conflict. The head of the US military department, Lloyd Austin, spoke about this in an interview with CNN.

According to the head of the Pentagon, the United States will send more artillery mounts and other weapons to Ukraine, which will allow the Armed Forces of Ukraine to maneuver and strike Russian units in different directions. In addition, US military specialists are training and equipping several Ukrainian mechanized infantry brigades to contribute to the fighting.



In addition, Austin, following other officials in the United States, repeated that Washington would support Kyiv as long as it seeks to return "its territories." In this, the United States is united with other members of the world community.

I think that what we are doing, the opportunities we are providing… will allow the Ukrainians to start changing the dynamics on the battlefield.

- said the head of the Pentagon.

Earlier, Lloyd Austin said that the members of the Ukrainian Defense Contact Group are doing everything possible to provide the Kyiv regime with everything necessary to create an "effect on the battlefield." At the same time, the Pentagon expects a spring-summer offensive from the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

    a Ukrainian offensive can be expected anywhere, especially where it is not expected, because. the goal of the offensive is to create a connection - the Americans give weapons, the Armed Forces of Ukraine convert them into successful offensives. Now the main thing for them is to justify the course for the supply of weapons.

    The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are unlikely to be able to keep enough forces everywhere, especially weapons, in order to defeat the Ukrainian offensive. Much will depend on the speed of the transfer of troops, on intelligence.

    On the other hand, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation also have significant strike forces that can be used at a time when the Ukrop offensive is in full swing and it is clear that the main forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are there. Such a Russian offensive elsewhere will force the Armed Forces to react.

    In any case, it is now important to continue to inflict as many strikes on military targets as possible and advance the front in order to generate zrada. The general combat morale of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is quite good, but it is compensated by expectations from the offensive, from the supply of weapons, from NATO assistance. You have to be patient, hold on...
    But if the offensive encounters serious problems, we can expect a quick breakdown of the combat morale of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The last hope will die and no one wants to die in vain. Distrust of the command, distrust of the United States will increase. The Armed Forces of Ukraine will no longer be what we are dealing with now.
