Loading ammunition for shipment to Ukraine. File photoMOSCOW, 16 Sep. Some European countries have run out of weapons to supply Ukraine, former US envoy to NATO Ivo Daalder wrote in an article for Foreign Affairs magazine. According to him, military support for Kyiv from the European Union is beginning to decline. Europe has run out of weapons and military stocks for supplies to Ukraine. U.S. officials are warning against continuing the emergency level of support provided to Kyiv over the past six months as U.S. military stocks begin to dwindle,» Daalder said.
The diplomat also drew attention to the fall in the level of Western economic aid to Ukraine.» Requests for additional financial assistance to Kyiv are facing great skepticism in the US Congress, and the Europeans are far from fulfilling their initial promises,” the publication says. Russia has been conducting a military special operation in Ukraine since February 24. President Vladimir Putin called the liberation of Donbass and the creation of conditions guaranteeing the security of Russia itself the ultimate goal. Against the backdrop of the operation, the United States and its NATO allies continue to supply weapons to Ukraine. President Joe Biden signed the lend-lease law, Washington allocates tens of billions of dollars to Kyiv. Moscow has repeatedly emphasized that the supply of Western military equipment only prolongs the conflict, and the transport of weapons becomes a legitimate target for the Russian army.
