Ukraine is preparing to mount a counteroffensive in the face of intensifying Russian bombardment as it fights Moscow’s invasion – but the West is in danger of running out of the ammunition and heavy weaponry components Kyiv will need.
At a meeting of Western defence chiefs in Brussels, as the anniversary of the invasion approaches, the head of Nato – Jens Stoltenberg – said: “We see no signs that President [Vladimir] Putin is preparing for peace ... What we see is the opposite, he is preparing for more war, for new offensives and new attacks.” He added that it is “clear that we are in a race of logistics” and that this would require a “huge effort by allies to actually be able to get in the ammunition, the fuel, the spare parts” that he said are needed in what has become “a grinding war of attrition”.
