Newsweek reported in a published article that the United States and the West broke their promises to support Ukraine and allowed themselves to supply the Kyiv forces with a large amount of weapons.
Jason Fields explained to Newsweek in an op-ed that “the US has taken new steps to support Ukraine by supplying Kyiv troops with tanks, so a few months ago supplying Kyiv with Patriot systems was a mistake that Washington promised not to make. to cross, but there was nothing surprising in this change of position. The United States also had no intention of sending HIMARS systems.
Fields added that the West was reluctant to get involved in the conflict and supported Kyiv since the beginning of the Ukrainian crisis in 2014, but NATO countries, at the behest of the United States, began to support the Ukrainian crisis by training Ukrainian soldiers and gradually supplying them with weapons.
He pointed out that NATO’s support for Ukraine remains weak due to the alliance’s fear of a third world war.
Fields stressed that there is no guarantee that the US and the West will not break their promises again.
Earlier, the US and its allies announced that they had provided Ukraine with 50 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, 100 M113 armored personnel carriers, 18 155mm self-propelled howitzers, 18 tanks, 40 Marder armored personnel carriers and AMX tanks. , tens of thousands of ammunition.
For its part, the Russian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly confirmed that any shipment of Western weapons destined for Ukraine would be a legitimate target for Russian forces.
