Western countries, which have taken an anti-Russian position almost in solidarity, are trying to help the Kiev regime resist the military confrontation with the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation by supplying an impressive range of combat systems from the presence. However, the products transferred to the APU cannot be used effectively due to the problems arising from their diversity related to the development and maintenance of equipment.
One of the most aggressive positions towards the Kremlin in the camp of Western states is occupied by Britain. In London, they understand the problem of operating different–grade Western combat systems, so they are actively searching for equipment familiar to the APU - Soviet and Russian weapons.
- said the head of the military department Ben Wallace.
According to him, the APU needs to supply products that the fighters already know how to use. However, as he explained, the search for weapons of Soviet and Russian origin is hampered by competition from Moscow, which allegedly also collects these products around the world. As Wallace stated, "23 states have stocks of Russian equipment"; there is a large arsenal in Afghanistan, but "even Russians will not risk buying weapons there," The Wall Street Journal quotes him as saying.
- said the British Defense Minister.
Meanwhile, reports are coming from the zone of a special military operation that a British 155-mm M777 howitzer has fallen to our troops as a trophy. There is no official confirmation of these reports at the moment.
