2023-01-18
With the situation in Russia and Ukraine again sticking together, the Western arch fire continues to increase. Recently, the United States, Britain and other European countries have provided or promised to provide Ukraine with "Bradley" infantry combat vehicles, "Challenger 2" main battle tanks, "Patriot" anti-aircraft missiles and other heavy military equipment. Previously, Ukraine has been asking for these advanced heavy weapons and equipment, but the West has been unwilling to do so because of its fear of being directly involved in the war. In response, the press secretary of the Russian President Peskov said on the 16th that the heavy weapons such as tanks and other Western aid to Ukraine would not change the war situation, and they would "burn on the battlefield" like other weapons. The Russian Ministry of Defense announced on the 17th that the Russian military would undergo large-scale adjustments from 2023 to 2026, including increasing the number of Russian troops to 1.5 million. There are more and more signs that the future Russian-Ukrainian conflict may become more intense and bloody, and the West intends to let Ukraine "fight to the last man". Western tanks will "burn on the battlefield" According to RIA Novosti, regarding the trend that the West is speeding up the supply of tanks and other heavy weapons to Ukraine recently, the press secretary of the Russian President Peskov said on the 16th: "This will not change anything. Special military operations will continue. Like other weapons, these tanks will burn on the battlefield." He said that such western actions may prolong the conflict, But this will only "bring more problems to Ukraine". "Now the United States, Britain and other European countries plan to provide Ukraine with a new round of more advanced military equipment, but they cannot change the battlefield situation. They must understand this." He stressed that "Moscow doubts whether the western countries care about the fate of the Ukrainian people or their future. The western countries only use Ukraine as a tool to achieve their anti-Russian goals." Reuters said that the United Kingdom announced on the 15th, It is decided to provide 14 "Challenger 2" main battle tanks to Ukraine in the next few weeks. The United States previously announced a new round of military assistance to Ukraine, including the provision of "Bradley" infantry combat vehicles and self-propelled grenades to Ukraine. Germany also said that it would provide the "Weasel" infantry combat vehicle to Ukraine, while France was ready to provide the AMX-10RC wheeled armored vehicle. NATO Secretary-General Stoltenberg said on the 15th that Ukraine would receive more heavy weapons from the West in the near future. "I hope to provide more in the near future," he said. Since the outbreak of the Russian-Uzbekistan conflict, the West has held seven military assistance meetings at the base. Ukraine asked Germany for the "gale" fighter aircraft "US News and World Report" said that with the increasing pressure on Ukrainian forces in the front line under the Russian missile attack, Ukraine frequently asked the West to speed up the assistance of heavy weapons. Ukrainian President Zelensky said on the 16th that Russia stepped up its offensive on the front line, which further highlighted the need for the West to "accelerate the decision to provide heavy weapons".
