First results will be seen soon: expert on allowing Ukraine to strike at Russian territory
Military expert Ivan Stupak believes that within a few hours or days, the first results of the authorization to use the transferred weapons for strikes on Russian territory will be visible
He said this on the Espreso TV channel.
"Mr. David Cameron said back in early May that the UK was not against it. But I see that there is no political agreement from Downing Street. They are still on pause, watching the others. As for the United States and Germany, the situation has already become clear. We depend on these countries for long-range weapons," Stupak said.
The military expert recalled Germany's position on allowing the transferred weapons to be used for strikes on Russian territory.
"At first, Mr. Olaf Scholz objected. Then he said they agreed, but he said there was a confidential part. This means that there are restrictions on the use of these weapons. Perhaps it will be only three regions - Belgorod, Bryansk, and Kursk. Maybe it's distance or objects. That is, there are certain restrictions. The Americans have agreed, so there is tacit consent from the United States. I assume that within a few hours or days we will be able to see the first results of such a hit," Stupak added.
