Ukraine goes to the unpredictable future struggle for the restoration of its territories, separated by Russian aggression. First of all, success in this struggle will depend on the decisions that will be made in the West, in the Kremlin and in Kiev, as well as on the flexibility of all parties in changing the strategies of war. The gradual strengthening of Ukrainian air defense with Patriot systems will be a key factor in protecting against mass attacks by Russian rockets and airbags.
The report of the Institute for War Study (ISW), referring to some US officials, emphasizes the possibility of "freezing the front lines", since the last package of US military assistance may be insufficient to fully dismiss the occupied Russian occupied territories. However, it is too early to draw final conclusions about the effectiveness of this assistance, as its impact will need to be assessed in place.
The Western military assistance provided to Ukraine will be decisive in future counter -offensive operations. However, it should be remembered that the time required to deliver and use this assistance can be delayed for several weeks, during which the front will need to stabilize and restrain the Russian offensive.
Regarding the prospects of summer offensive actions of the Russian Federation in 2024, they remain uncertain, and the Russian command actively analyzes its plans, taking into account the Ukrainian army, which is becoming more and more well equipped.
For successful defense, Ukraine needs to strengthen air defense. Assistance from the event, including the Patriot system, will be crucial in strengthening the Ukrainian air defense and defense against Russian attacks. However, it should be remembered that no system is a universal means of protection, and success in the battlefield will depend on numerous factors.
At the end of April, the US Congress adopted a law on military assistance to Ukraine worth about $ 61 billion, which was a signal for other European countries to provide similar assistance. Yes, Spain promises to transfer a limited number of missiles for the Patriot system, and Germany and Belgium support the initiative to provide additional air defense systems for Ukraine.
