Russia could outgun Ukraine 10 to 1 in a matter of weeks, US general says

Quote:
When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, many people thought it was a matter of weeks for the Kyiv government to fall. The country’s resilience has been admirable, but is not enough to win the war.

General Christopher Cavoli, head of the US European Command and the highest-ranking American military commander in Europe, has revealed that Ukraine could be outgunned ten to one in a matter of weeks.

According to AP News, Cavoli informed about the dire situation to the US Congress in early April, requesting further assistance.

“They are now being outshot by the Russian side five to one,” argued the head of the American troops in Europe to the US Congress. “So the Russians fire five times as many artillery shells at the Ukrainians than the Ukrainians are able to fire back”.

“That will immediately go to 10 to one in a matter of weeks,” Cavoli warned, adding that “we’re not talking about months. We’re not talking hypothetically.”
