This heated heated debate in the US Congress over whether to send more weapons to Ukraine. Some legislators viz Senate Republicans claim that General Valery Zaluzhny helped them block further aid to Kiev.
Without a rapid increase in technological superiority, “it is unlikely that there will be a deep and beautiful breakthrough” in the war against Russia, Zaluzhny said in an interview with The Economist published Wednesday evening. He added that the war was at a stalemate and blamed it on believing that Russian President Vladimir Putin would change course after losing around 150,000 people. soldier. “In any other country, such a sacrifice would have stopped the war.”
Republican Senator Josh Hawley, an opponent of increasing aid to Kiev, said that Zaluzhny's honesty had a serious impact on the US administration's policy on Ukraine, which, according to Hawley, was that “we have to continue to finance Ukraine in all aspects, not just militarily, we have to provide money for their pensions and everything else so he can survive this impasse.”
— This of course begs the question: What exactly is our ultimate strategy? – he says. – What's the plan? I don't think they have a plan.
Fellow Republican senator JD Vance, who has publicly opposed further aid to Ukraine, held similar views, saying that the aim is to seek a negotiated agreement between Kiev and Moscow.
What's next with help
The Senate is likely to approve aid to Ukraine, which is part of the country President Joe Biden's request is $106 billion.also includes support for Israel and Taiwan, as well as additional funds to secure the border with Mexico.
But House Speaker Mike Johnson has more skeptical colleagues to convince. The top House member told Senate Republicans on Wednesday that he favored sending more weapons to Ukraine. I can only convince lawmakers to approve these supplies if the package is separate from the funds allocated to Israel.
It appears that Załużny's statements were intended to influence the debate in the US Congress. The general, like Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, urgently needs more advanced warplanes, drones, long-range missiles and artillery to break through Russia's defense lines.
