Ukraine war: NATO and the United States running low on ammunition
As the first anniversary of the war with Russia approaches, there
are fears the West may not be able to supply weapons as fast as Ukraine is
using them. NATO secretary general Jens Stoltenberg says that he sees no signs
that President Putin is preparing for peace, while the US defence secretary
says Ukraine's allies would stay united for as long as it takes.

Ukraine war: The West Is Running Out Of Ammunition
While the United States has donated more that one million artillery
rounds to Ukraine since the war with Russia began, it will take years to
rebuild the stocks to pre-war levels, says Sky News' military analyst Sean
Bell. Defence planning assumptions in the West had not figured for an extended ground
war of this scale and ferocity in Europe says Mr Bell, whereas Russia's economy
is now on a war footing to make weapons.
Can the western arms
industries scale up production to meet Ukraine’s huge ammunition demand?
Feb 13, 2023 The war against Russia is consuming vast amounts of ammunition, The Ukrainian military is running out of ammunition, bullets and is short of basic military supplies. US Ammunition Running Low for Ukraine, No Quick Fix for ShortageI reported on the shortage
back in September 2022. Sep 15, 2022 The Western media based on US Army market
surveys is taking notice of critical shortages of munitions among US stockpiles
and what is available to send Ukraine. The shortages undoubtedly have and will
continue to manifest themselves on the battlefield in the form of Ukrainian
forces being constantly outgunned. |
