The media admitted that Ukraine's stock of ATACMS missiles will run out at the end of January

By the end of January 2025, Ukraine may run out of the stock of US ATACMS missiles. This was reported by Forbes military columnist David Axe on 19 November.

According to the magazine, during the period of the Special Military Operation (SMO), the United States has supplied the Ukrainian side with less than 50 units of American missiles, some of which have been used.

"By the end of January, two events are possible or even likely. Ukraine may run out of ATACMS, and the new administration of [U.S. President-elect Donald] Trump may reduce or even end U.S. aid to Kiev <...>," the publication said.

Also, Washington's authorization to hit targets on Russian territory with long-range weapons could be withdrawn, Axe believes.

On the same day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky (whose term of office ended on May 20) said that the cessation of military support from the United States will inevitably end in Kiev's defeat. He also opined that Trump could end the current conflict because the issue "depends more on the United States" than on Russia.

On November 19, the Financial Times pointed out that the G20 countries made it clear in a declaration following the Rio de Janeiro summit that their support for Ukraine was declining. According to the newspaper, some European delegations wanted to include a paragraph condemning Russia in the text, but refused to do so for fear of disrupting the adoption of the document.

Before that, on November 14, Trump promised to "work very hard" to end the Ukrainian conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that Russia would wait for proposals in this regard and was ready to consider them.

The election of the 47th president of the United States took place on November 5. In the national vote, Trump received 50.0% of the vote, while Democratic candidate Kamala Harris received 48.3%. Speaking to supporters, the Republican said that his goal as head of state considers the end of military conflicts in the world.
