Kiev asks West to send multiple rocket launchers “as soon as possible”

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba has told Kiev’s foreign backers at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos that they should curb optimism about the situation on the ground in the east of the country.

“I don't want anyone to get the feeling that the war is more or less OK. The situation in Donbass is extremely bad,” Kuleba insisted.

And things are going to get even worse if “we don't get MLRS ASAP,” he added, referring to the US-made M270 MLRS system that can be used as both a multiple rocket launcher and a tactical missile launcher.

Without the MLRS systems, the Kiev government won’t be able to retake Kherson, and control of the strategic city would allow Russia to threaten both central Ukraine and the south-western regions, where the port of Odessa is situated, he pointed out.

However, Kuleba said that “the situation with the deliveries of weapons [to Ukraine] is much better now, compared to a month ago.” He added that Washington “deserves respect” because of this.

Ukrainian officials have been getting increasingly frustrated with the Biden administration’s failure to supply Kiev with MLRS systems, Politico reported last week. Unnamed US officials told the outlet that the White House was dragging its feet over the potential shipment of the rocket launchers due to concerns it could be viewed as a further escalation by Russia. One of the sources told the outlet that Washington had to “make decisions about what weapons systems provide the biggest bang for the buck.” Therefore, the US ruled that “it was more effective and efficient to send the 90 M777 [howitzers] because you can send more of them” for the same amount of money, compared to the MLRS.

You are leaving in a dream land

Has America ever weaponized food for war as we are seeing the Russians do with pleasure?
I pity those ignorant Putinists supporting Russia. Food issue is about to hit the globe and Europe's biggest food basket is sabotaging Europe's second biggest food basket food security. This will affect other European nations who have the financial muscle to outspend African and small Asian countries. I really pity our brainwashed islamist who think America is their Satan and anything anti-America is Islamic.

This week China will open its camp where muslims are allegedly being reoriented. Lots of atrocities has been happening there, yet some brainwashed islamists think America is their main problem.

We are talking about the war going towards nuke and your talking about food.

When Russia wipes Ukraine down then those who support USA will find a new nation to destroy because usa loves blood.
