Jordan is one of the closest allies of the United States in the world: US army chief, 4th, final add
On the date of the withdrawal of the Russian forces, Milley said that he does not know when this day will come, as there are many ways to reach this result, and one of these ways is the military way. He noted that Ukraine is carrying out an offensive operation now, and it has been going on for almost eight weeks, and this way is bloody and slow, leaving victims in large numbers and very difficult. Milley added that the idea of ??expelling 200,000 or 300,000 military personnel would be very difficult. Regarding other ways to resolve the conflict, he said that there is another way out of this situation through negotiations, and this way may also happen, but in the end it does not matter which way it was, whether through diplomatic means or through military means. Ultimately, Ukraine must remain free, sovereign and independent, and this is the victory. Regarding his opinion of the Ukrainian counterattack, which Milley described as slow, the US Army chief stressed that it did not fail, but it was slow. Milley believes that Ukrainians have already liberated a large part of the Ukrainian lands occupied by Russia since the beginning of the offensive, and in particular the progress that is being made now. Milley explained that planners, when preparing for the attack, believed that things would go a little faster, but the matter is not over yet, and there is steady progress being made from day to day and it is measured at 400 or 500 meters per day or 1000 meters per day and so on, but there is steady progress and the Ukrainians are fighting this battle. When asked if he believed that his country was late in providing the Ukrainians with reliable weapons, Milley confirmed that, pointing out that there are many observations on this subject. Milley said the Ukrainians got what they needed when they needed it. He added that when the Ukrainians needed anti-tank systems, NATO, the United States and others provided a large amount of anti-tank systems and other types of weapon systems. According to Milley, the other thing the Ukrainians needed was an air defense capability in order to defeat the Russian Air Force, which they succeeded in both cases. Milley believes that the Russian Air Force has not played a major role in this war so far, as the Russian offensive armored formations were defeated by anti-tank weapons. He said that the Ukrainians were provided with a lot of artillery, which is the basis for the ground maneuver. Milley added that war is firing and that is why Ukraine has a lot of artillery ammunition and artillery tubes. As for the F-16s, Milley said, “We’re in the process of actually having a training program in place and they’re likely to receive F-16s in the not-too-distant future.”
