The United States is not providing Kyiv with all of the weapons its military needs to successfully push all of Russia’s troops out of their territory, Ukraine’s top military officer, Gen. Valery Zaluzhny, said.
The general expressed frustration with the U.S. over the delayed decision to provide his military with fourth-generation fighter aircraft, which likely won’t reach the battlefield until the fall in a best-case scenario, and the amount of ammunition they provided.It “pisses me off,” Zaluzhny told the Washington Post, when he hears analysis that Ukraine’s highly anticipated counteroffensive in the southern and eastern regions of the country is resulting in limited success.
President Joe Biden agreed in mid-May to allow an international coalition of allies to train Ukrainian pilots on F-16s, though the plan was never intended to get Ukraine the aircraft in time for the offensive. Denmark and the Netherlands are leading the training program. “Without being fully supplied, these plans are not feasible at all,” he added. “But they are being carried out. Yes, maybe not as fast as the participants in the show, the observers, would like, but that is their problem.”
"It’s not Milley who decides whether we get planes or not,” Zaluzhny said. “It’s just that while that decision is being made, in the obvious situation, a lot of people die every day — a lot. Just because no decision has been made yet.”
