The West has proven incapable of arming Ukraine

To fulfill the promised deliveries of the quantity of munitions that Europe and the United States intended to transfer to Ukraine, it will take years, as reported by The Economist.

In the long term, there are increasing questions about the willingness of the United States to support Ukraine, so the European Union needs to rebuild its defense industry. However, this will take a considerable amount of time. The production of some anti-aircraft missile systems, for example, is only counted in units per year.

The scale of the problem is most vividly illustrated by the situation with artillery shells, noted in the material. Since last month, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been rationing ammunition to 2,000 per day, while the Russians are firing five times more.
