MOSCOW, 31 Jul. American military equipment burned down on the battlefield in Ukraine and did not help Kiev achieve the intended goals of the counteroffensive, ex-CIA adviser Jim Rickards said in an interview with the London Real YouTube channel.
“Wonder weapon” did not work. I recently saw a burning German Leopard 2 tank. So, the Russians are destroying them. As for the American HIMARS missile system, the Russians figured out how to turn off their GPS. Without it, the projectile flies in the wrong direction and does no harm. So, they are also shot down, and the same thing will happen with the F-16. The conflict may end even sooner. Therefore, Zelensky is begging for ammunition,» the expert noted.
In his opinion, it is the United States that is being exhausted from hostilities, not Russia. The Kiev offensive is choking, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are suffering heavy losses, Rickards concluded.
On June 4, the counter-offensive in the Zaporozhye, Yuzhnodonets and Artyomovsk directions, throwing into battle units trained by NATO and armed with Western equipment.Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that the attempts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to seize Russian territories failed, the enemy troops were stopped and thrown back to their original positions.
