Afghanistan will not happen again: Zelensky assured the United States that Western weapons would not fall into the hands of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

Presidential Office Andriy Yermak tried to dispel the fears of Americans that the western weapons supplied to Ukraine are under insufficient control. The head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak has published a column in Newsweek, which recalled that over the past 20 years, Americans and their allies have put in Iraq and Afghanistan military equipment for hundreds of billions of dollars, and then some of these weapons were in the hands of the enemy.

He assured the American audience that in the case of Ukraine everything will be different because Ukrainians intend to fight. Yermak recalled that after the start of a full -scale invasion of the Russian army, the assumption was that Ukrainians would be able to last only a few days. However, Ukraine stood before the enemy forces and won the battle for Kyiv.

According to Andriy Yermak, Ukraine would not be able to achieve impressive success in the battles without an unprecedented level of military assistance from the US and European allies. This demonstrated the supply of HIMARS missile systems from the United States, which allowed the Armed Forces to hit hundreds of high -priority Russian goals that were out of reach.

However, the Russians have moved to the war for exhaustion, so the statement of Biden's administration to allocate another billion dollars to help Ukraine is the long -awaited news for Ukrainian soldiers.

"This help is a matter of life and death for us, and I can assure the American people and their elected representatives that Zelensky and his administration consider the effective deployment of weapons not only as a priority task, but also as a sacred duty to the Ukrainian people," - Andrey Yermak emphasized. "That is why Zelensky has introduced levels of control and accountability to ensure that Ukraine provides.

" OP head stressed that the presidential team regularly meets with representatives of the countries who provide this assistance to report where and how it is used. The Council also created a special commission to monitor and control all foreign assistance provided by Ukraine. Andriy Yermak assured that journalists easily receive accreditation to cover the war.

In addition, the Ukrainian authorities are working closely with the brigade General Harrick Harmon, who recently arrived in the US military attaché. "Rest assured, he will have an unprecedented level of access and support from the Zelensky administration," Yermak promised. - Assistance in the safety provided by the American people is vital to us to complete our mission and prevent the further spread of this conflict. " The use of weapons from Western partners.
