Biden continues his pusillanimous dithering that has only reluctantly provided Ukraine the minimal number and capability weapons to stop Russia from taking all of Ukraine but insufficient to expel the Russian invaders.
- Took almost 2 years to ok jets that still are not there.
- Took 1.5 years to ok limited number of tanks that are just arriving.
- Limited number of long range artillery (ATACMS)
- Limited capability (range) of ATACMS provided
- Delayed providing HIMARS
- Delayed providing Patriots
- Delayed providing Howitzers
- Delayed providing short range air defense
- Tried to get Zelensky to leave
- Stopped supplying anti-tank missiles
The dithering allowed Russia to build layered defensive lines and develop weapons and kill zones for the expected attack.
The US would never attempt to attack without dominant airpower and significant usage of long range artillery.
The result is that despite heroic bravery, the 2023 Ukrainian Offensive had limited success. Ukraine has lost large numbers of precious skilled fighters and Russia continues to destroy Ukraine.
- Why did Biden/Obama allow Russia to invade Eastern Ukraine in 2014 with almost no consequences?
- Why is Biden dithering?
