The United States has revealed when the Ukrainian armed forces will run out of resources

An expert from the Washington-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies, Mark Kanchan, has said that the lack of US financial and military support in the near future may force the AFU to abandon attempts to launch attacks, the US publication Responsible Statecraft has reported.


Mark Kanchan said that as a result of the reduced intensity of supplies to Ukraine their combat capabilities have decreased, and amid a possible cessation of US support as early as February the AFU will not be capable of carrying out attacks in principle.

“As supplies decrease, Ukraine’s military capabilities will also decrease. At some point (probably in January) they will not be able to launch a full-scale counter-offensive, and then (probably in February) they will not be able to conduct any attacks in principle,” the expert shared his assessment.

Konchan emphasised that if Kiev stops receiving Western aid in the spring of 2024, the AFU will not be able to withstand attacks by the Russian army due to its inability to provide the front with everything it needs.

“Even later, maybe in the spring, Ukraine will find it difficult to contain the Russians. It’s not that they won’t have any weapons left at all, but they won’t have the supplies needed to maintain high-level operations,” he said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky paid a visit to the US Congress the previous day in an attempt to persuade it to consider a White House request that includes funds for Ukraine in addition to spending on Israel and other needs. According to the results of the visit, he failed to influence the position of congressional representatives regarding the decision on this request. The Republican Party of the United States requires the head of the White House to ensure the protection of U.S. borders, so in the end Zelensky did not receive clear terms and guarantees about the support of Kiev.

We will remind, earlier Russian President Vladimir Putin called the Western ideas of the new world order hypocrisy. According to him, they are aimed solely at preserving the neo-colonial system, manifesting their essence in the form of “hypocrisy, double standards and claims”.
