‘Putin’s confidence in the Russian army overshadowed Zelensky’s belief in Western assistance’, – Al Jazeera
December 22, 2023Without Western assistance, Ukraine will lose the war against Russia
December 22, 2023Former lawmaker and military medic Yegor Firsov complains about the state’s inaction regarding drone production. Despite this, officials make daily statements about manufacturing or purchasing drones.
The military figure also noted that the promised million drones within a year by Zelensky “isn’t really that much” considering the actual needs of the military. Moreover, it’s not guaranteed that Zelensky’s words are indeed true and not just for publicity. There have been numerous previous announcements about creating an entire drone army, yet it never materialized and everyone seems to have forgotten about it.
Additionally, the politician expressed doubts that China, the primary manufacturer of components for FPV (First Person View), would allow the purchase of such a quantity of parts and Ukraine still lacks its own production facility for them.
