They went into a dead end: Pentagon think that Ukraine and the Russian Federation are not capable of a large -scale offensive

The Conclusions of the US Department of Defense repeat public statements by high -ranking US officials, including Mark Millie, the former chairman of the Joint Committee of Chiefs of Staff. Both Ukraine and Russia lacks resources for scale offensive operations. This may indicate that the situation will go into a "deadlock". This is stated in the Pentagon report.

According to estimates of the US Defense Ministry, Ukraine does not have as many ammunition as in the Russian Federation, which can shoot about 10,000 artillery shells a day. The Armed Forces may be defended, but in the next half a year they will not be able to start a large -scale counter -attack. On the other hand, the Russian Federation tries to deplete Ukraine, but has no enough strength to attack, in particular, in Kharkiv region.

The Conclusions of the US Department of Defense repeat public statements by high-ranking US officials, in particular Mark Millie, the former chairman of the Joint Committee of Chiefs of Staff, that the conflict is about to be a dead end. The report emphasizes the successful use of the US tactical missile system (ATACMS), which destroyed the Russian ship in Sevastopol and several of the most modern C-400 missile systems in Crimea.
