WW3 Escalation – Military Announces Risky New Move Against Russia

Only for non-combat tasks, the ODC provides Ukraine with a range of support and advice services. They report to the Chief of Mission and are a part of the embassy.

The advisors will oversee the whereabouts of the weapons and assist the Ukrainian military with weapon maintenance, in addition to providing logistical support. In the past, some American weapons supplies have gone to unscrupulous organizations, such as criminal gangs, who then sell them to anyone, including jihadists and terrorists.

Pentagon officials told Politico that they will send “up to 60” consultants, but they are still determining the exact number.

According to Biden, American troops will not be involved in combat. That is nothing new to us. There will be a strong desire to support Ukraine in its efforts to retake the initiative against Russian soldiers.

“Frontline troops and prominent leaders in Ukraine have demanded increased artillery, air defenses, long-range missiles, and fighter jets, claiming that these weapons will enable their country to breach Russian defenses and maintain its positions. The announcement that the United States is deploying more troops to Ukraine coincides with senior officials’ alert last week on Russia’s increasing influence. In the event that Congress rejects the aid plan, Ukraine may lose the war this year, according to CIA Director Bill Burns. In an address to Congress, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin stated, “We are already seeing things on the battlefield start to move a bit in Russia’s favor.” They are making very little progress, as we can see. The Ukrainians are facing difficulties in maintaining the line.

Moscow will likely step up its attacks before the majority of the recently acquired U.S. weapons can arrive on the battlefield and actually be of any use, so any gains by Russia are likely to grow.

Business Insider:

“In a report on the conflict, the think tank Institute for the Study of War stated that Russia would probably step up its operations in Ukraine ahead of the new package in order to take advantage of “abnormally dry conditions and ongoing Ukrainian equipment shortages.” The report asserts that the anticipated arrival of US security assistance has undoubtedly highlighted these issues for Russian soldiers.” “To seek operationally substantial effects that will undoubtedly grow tougher to achieve against well-provisioned Ukrainian forces, the Russian military command is expected to expand offensive operations and missile and drone strikes.” It also said that Russia would probably target regions in the Donetsk region west of Avdiivka or near Chasiv Yar, where Ukraine’s defenses appear to be somewhat shaky or where they are on the verge of accomplishing an “operationally major aim.”

Stabilizing the battle lines in the east while pursuing regaining territory in the north is a feasible goal for Ukraine, and one that Biden should emphasize. At that moment, Putin may be more receptive to a settlement.

Should Trump become president, he could broker such an agreement.
