    “In fact, this task is largely completed. Ukraine is using less and less of its weapons. And more and more it uses the weapons systems that Western countries supply it with.”

    So they’ve used up the old soviet weapons and now using modern western weapons.

    As for supplying weapons. America is happy to. We are trying to give away tanks like they are kittens!

      And can we stop giving tanks to that tank-lady that lives in the apartment down the hall? She barely takes care of the ones she has.

          Lol, sorry. I was joking on the notion of giving tanks away like kittens, and how there might be a tank-lady similar to the stereotype of a cat-lady that has way too many cats.

      America doesn’t ‘give away’ weapons, Ukraine will pay for them eventually, just like Israel, SK, Taiwan, and the rest always do.

      They could argue is that they want to protect their IP or something. If that gives them a “win” so they leave then mission accomplished I say!
