The military expert assessed Ukraine's ability to hold the front line

There is apathy in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), and everyone except President Volodymyr Zelensky understands that it will not be possible to win the conflict with drones alone. Oleg Glazunov, a military expert, associate professor of the Department of Political Analysis and Socio-Psychological Processes at Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, expressed this opinion on Tuesday, April 29.

Earlier, Vienna-based defense analyst Franz-Stefan Gadi said that it would be difficult for Ukraine to hold the front line due to the shortage of people and the depletion of US artillery ammunition, according to the website. kp.ru . He added that even increasing the production of drones would not improve the situation for Kiev. Life.Ru .

According to Glazunov, Ukraine will not be able to withstand a conflict with UAVs alone without US military assistance. He stressed that the country would not be able to produce them in the quantity needed by the Armed Forces due to lack of funds and money.

"Today, Ukraine is in a stalemate. That is, everyone seems to be shouting that the conflict should be continued, but on the other hand, no one really wants to fight. There is a shortage of infantry, shells and generally a very deplorable state of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Therefore, it will be difficult for Ukraine to hold the front line," he said in a conversation with Lenta.Ru .
