Ukraine's casualties are intensified to promote the US defense system and fighter aircraft
The Russian and Ukraine War has lasted for nearly three months, and the increasing casualties have increased.Wufang urged the United States to provide air defense systems and fighters, saying that the situation is much more tragic than the war at the beginning.
Ukrainian parliament members Ustinova described at the Marshall Fund round table in Washington on Friday that the Ukrainian front line is now like hell."We lost more soldiers than at the beginning of the war."
Ukrainian President Zeleiski revealed in mid -April that 2,500 to 3,000 Urpicious Army had been killed and about 10,000 were injured.
Ustinova said that Ukraine now needs a multi-tube rocket launch system, Paladin automatic howitzer and F-16 fighter to retreat.
Karenek, a well -known civic social movement person in Ukraine, also said at the round table meeting: "We have no way to rely on the Soviet period of equipment to win this battle. One. There are more Soviet -style equipment in Russia;Military sources; 3. Russia's population and soldiers are more. "
Ustinova and Karenek said that the Biden government lacked "necessary political determination" for whether the Bayeng government had to provide new military reserve, and the United States still seemed to worry about Moscow.
In terms of war, military experts pointed out that after the Russian army's adjustment strategy will focus on the Wudong region, it is still impossible to achieve the results, because the Russian army continues to be trapped in planning, heavy casualties, and low morale.
