How to save Kharkiv: Europe knows the recipe but is afraid to offend Russia

It is clear how to act to prevent the barbaric shelling of Kharkiv, writes military analyst Alexei Kopitko. Only Western weapons and political will of the Allies are needed, which must understand that Kharkiv is also Europe. By 2022, Kharkiv was one of the 20 largest cities in Europe in terms of officially registered population-1. 4 million+ people. The real population was closer to 2 million. Among the non-Kharkiv, only Istanbul, St. Petersburg, Hamburg, Barcelona and Munich were larger than Kharkiv.

Actually, Kharkiv was between Munich and Milan. When Russia shoots on Kharkiv, I try to remember the moment of comparison for clarity. Because Kharkiv is unclear, and Barcelona is clear. So. If you mark the border on the map, where there were arrivals, at least a third of Kharkiv (Barcelona, ​​Milan, Munich) can be turned into ruins from the territory of the Russian Federation without the use of winged/ballistic missiles.

The ammunition that Russia is traveling to kill children in Kharkiv is still damp, but has more destructive power, how to compare with C-300 and-most importantly-for a while (months) can be produced in commodity quantities. Neutralization measures are clear. The first is the blows on the launches in the Russian Federation. The second is the means against Russian tactical aviation. Both one and the other are enough for our partners.

Moreover, some of the means have already been transferred and mastered by the Ukrainian army, but it is a ban on use in Russia. The case for a small one is a political decision. All who evade this decision contribute to the Kremlin in the destruction of Kharkiv and call misery to Europe. This will end in that Russian bombs will start falling on the cities of the EU and NATO. Because the Kremlin improves its weapons in combat while the Western countries are scratching.
