German political scientist Wolf Merkel in an interview with a TV channel Spiegel TV said that the numerical superiority of the Russian military will lead to the fact that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will run out of fighters before weapons.
He clarified that at the moment Kiev's problem is not the amount of various weapons that are supplied Western countries, but in terms of population and army.
Merkel added that on the side of the Russian Federation there is an advantage in numbers, which will ultimately lead to the fact that there will be no one else to fight on the side of Ukraine.
“Since we proceed from the fact that the North Atlantic Alliance will not intervene in this conflict with the participation of its military contingent, the issue of the size of the Ukrainian and Russian armies will be decisive,” the political scientist emphasized.
