The Ukrainian army has problems with weapons to carry out a successful defense in the Donbass, said military analyst Agil Rustamzade, noting that if desired, this problem can be quickly resolved.

“I have repeatedly stated about the incorrect coverage of armed conflicts by the media. For example, nowadays, when the pressure of the Russian army on the Donetsk operational direction is increasing with the likelihood of reaching the level of an offensive level of the operational level, everyone is discussing tanks for a hypothetical offensive of the Ukrainian troops in the spring-summer campaign,” the analyst states..

Problems with the armament of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Donbass, according to Rustamzade:.

The absence of anti-aircraft machine guns and cannons leads to a decrease in the capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to destroy enemy artillery. Meanwhile, the Russian army has set up a hunt for artillery systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with kamikaze drones and is gaining a fire advantage;

the absence of the required number of machine guns and mortars in the combat formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine allows the Russian army to effectively use the tactics of small infantry groups and break through the defense.

“Identified problems can be solved in a short period. Otherwise, the offensive of the Russian army will have to be restrained not by fire, but by losses.. And in the information space, battles unfolded “will they give Ukraine the F-16 or not”. In war, operational art, flexibility, etc. wins.. Over the past two months, these features have prevailed in the Russian army…” Rustamzade stated..

What will happen to the war in Ukraine? Who and what can influence its course? What wars await the world in the coming years and how the planet will live after them? Agil Rustamzade answered these questions in November in an interview with Inna Vedernikova “The world will end Russia and Iran. We will see this in the future from several months to a year.”.
