The head of the Pentagon promised to supply weapons to Ukraine "as much as needed"

54

The United States will supply arms to Ukraine "as needed." This statement was made by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, who visited Latvia.

The head of the Pentagon arrived in the Baltics, as he himself put it, to discuss further support for Ukraine. According to him, he looks forward to meeting with the Latvian government to discuss security issues in the Baltic region and further support for Ukraine. Riga, in turn, said that the main task of the US Secretary of Defense is to reaffirm the US commitment to protecting all NATO allies.



Later, after talking with his Latvian counterpart Artis Pabriks, Lloyd said that the United States would continue to provide military assistance to Ukraine "as needed." According to him, the conflict in Ukraine only rallied NATO, the alliance did not split.

The United States provided significant security assistance to Ukraine. But we are among almost 50 countries that are working together to find resources to continue providing support. We are determined to help Ukraine, provide it with equipment and technology... to protect the territory... We will do this as long as it takes

- said the head of the Pentagon.

Lloyd noted that NATO does not seek a confrontation with Russia and is not a threat to it, and the buildup of forces near the Russian border is just a commitment to Article 5 of the NATO charter.

        Well done, the wording for anything can be summed up.
        For example, the
        Well, how much will it take?
        Answer,
        As much as promised winked

          It is important to understand who needs it.
          If Ukraine, then they don’t have that much. There "like in a dry land" - no matter how much you give, everything is not enough, and what came is "poyily patsyuki".
          And if "the world community, then this is as much as they can master the money ...

      Taking into account the fact that mass shelling of our lands has been in the order of things for a long time, there are destructions and not only the wounded, but also the dead, unfortunately, the mantra "fight to the last Ukrainian" has grown into the thesis about the maximum possible damage to Russia. It's time for the Kremlin invest in the creation of a "confederate army of independent western states of a new America." Long live the American Civil War!

        Taken straight off the tongue. And why don't we supply weapons to sworn enemies of the United States? Why don't we support the Basques, Catalans, Irish, Scots, Welsh, Bretons and other European jihadists with weapons?

    We heard this already from Biden, who said this word for word.
    we are among almost 50 countries
    The head of the Pentagon arrives in the Baltics to discuss further support for Ukraine. And representatives of "almost 50 countries" also arrived? Did they take the money with the weapons with them or later by mail? All the evil spirits of the world are at war with us and do not hide it. How will they be mangled after the complete defeat of Ukraine. It will be expensive to see.

    It is also necessary for our Defense Ministry to say in response: "Well ..... then we will have to go to Lvov."
    And let the Ukrainians themselves know what is more important for them - life or weapons.
