TL;DR:
* A Ukrainian official said his country is up to nine months behind in its pushback against Russia.
* Mykhailo Podolyak told Channel 24 that Western approvals delayed weapons by three to four months.
* “We could have defended ourselves better and launched a counterattack,” he said.
Next year is going to be even worse when elections dictate whether we should keep supplying aid
Ask Israel to help ya out, they gonna get more than they need. You dont need that many bombs to annihilate civilians
With respect: It was because of the fast Western weapon deliveries that Russia’s three day military operation is nearly two years behind schedule.
Would be nice to know how much lives were lost due to those delays too
This advisor probably complains about slow service at restaurants as well.
I wrote something longer, but realized it could be just a sentence or two. Russia wants the narrative to be either “Ukraine is ungrateful for western support” or “demand for immediate success from the west shows they don’t care for Ukraine’s people.” Neither is true. Aid could come faster, stories are needed in the west to shore up support, but at the end of the day Russia is fighting a delaying war. Their tactics are about eroding western support until they have the ability to win, because they can’t otherwise.
Don’t fall into the media blame game. It’s what Russia is hoping for.
even if true slow is better than none
Yet they are able to fight Russia. This messaging is counterproductive. It’s hard enough to get support to send massive amounts of materiel. Don’t fuck it up with coulda shoulda wouldas.
Ukrainian officials need to be better trained not to blurt shit that’s bad for optics with their own allies. Talking racist shit about India and China is one thing, but what good can come of insulting the western countries they desperately need?
Remember that this war is sheer imperialistic try at conquest.
Therefore it’s a matter of showing if we, as western countries and nations share common values and fight it…or not. Doesn’t matter who gives, who takes. Are we united or not?
They got increased supplies and training around the time dry season started instead of wrapping up training before dry season
Their focus on artillery, boats and AA has been a huge success in summer/start of fall, even if territory gained has not moved as much as everyone hoped.
Doesnt help that a large portion of the gop is pro-russia and those on the far left
Oh I’m sorry, is your free shit not arriving fast enough?
