In Britain, they called the number of 155-mm self-propelled guns AS-90 planned for delivery to Ukraine

66

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who in every way encourages other countries to help Ukraine with weapons, previously announced the supply of self-propelled artillery mounts to Kyiv, as well as the training of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the use of British self-propelled guns.

As it turned out, Britain plans to send Zelensky 20 (twenty) 155-mm AS-90 self-propelled howitzers and 45 artillery shells for them. The installations, together with the shells, will be delivered to Poland, which has become a NATO logistics hub, from where they will be delivered to the territory of Ukraine. The delivery of the ACS will be carried out together with the military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who will also be trained in the use of these ACS in Poland.



The 155-mm AS-90 self-propelled guns are in service with the armies of Great Britain and Poland, a total of 179 units were produced, not counting prototypes. It has not received wide distribution. The firing range is 24 km in the basic version and up to 30 km with an extended barrel. What option Ukraine will get is still unknown. Rate of fire - 3 rounds per minute, can use all 155 mm NATO ammunition.

In addition to Britain, other countries will supply artillery. Thus, the United States and Canada will supply Ukraine with towed 155-mm M-777 howitzers and ammunition. Canada will provide four guns and their ammunition, while the US will supply 90 M-777 guns, 184 artillery rounds, and tractors to tow these weapons. The Netherlands is transferring German self-propelled guns PzH 2000 to Ukraine. Macron promises to supply 12 self-propelled guns CAESAR. With the shells there, the situation is still not entirely clear, naturally, the United States will supply the bulk.

As Zelensky's "best friend" Boris Johnson said earlier, Western countries need to supply Ukraine with so many weapons, which in general will "discourage" Russia from invading. In Germany, they urged to prevent the victory of Russia in Ukraine.

          That's right. It's better to be friends with Israel. But some especially aggressive clowns are already straining. What about the strikes on decision-making centers?

          . Nevertheless, he could not completely ignore the issue of Ukraine's territorial losses during the Russian military special operation, but promised: "Everything that they break through and everything that they "occupy", we will return everything. This is a question of weapons, if we have it enough - we will immediately begin to return the occupied territories."

          Despite the huge warehouses and stockpiles of weapons, the President of Ukraine continues to insist that the only weakness of his army is the lack of weapons. And he just can’t admit that it’s simply impossible to bombard the enemy with American machine guns and British grenade launchers.

          But you can't escape reality. Zelensky nevertheless admitted that so far his state is disarmed. And is defeated in the conflict.

          - I do not consider the option where our partners do not give us the weapons they promised. We don't consider it. There is no such alternative. We will not have a country, - the Ukrainian president admitted, and he became so sad from such a prospect that he considered it necessary to immediately promise. - When we win, we will have the strongest and most experienced army. And we will become one of the most powerful states in Europe.

          And in order to finally assure those present of his significance and prospects for Ukraine, he said that "tomorrow US Secretary of State Blinken and US Secretary of Defense Austin will visit Kyiv."


          .I do not want to meet with the President of the Russian Federation. I have to. If we plan to resolve these issues diplomatically. As for whether I want Putin to appear before the tribunal: I am sure that they will appear - everyone who gave these shameful orders to destroy people, children, everyone. I am sure of it, I believe in it,” he said. - We know how the international trial is going, how the international court is going, how it happens. This has been going on for years. We will wait. We will wait. And if people like me do not wait, then our children will definitely wait. Believe me, I am sure that there will be the last nail in the politics of this state.

I think it's unlikely. They are, by nature, hucksters. It’s us, by the way, and the Ukrainians are ready to turn their cities into ruins, but win, and these are better off surrendering, but keeping their property, and then destroying everything - no, not kosher.

    P.S. Yesterday there was a strike by Ukrainian air defense on a high-rise building in Odessa. Everyone says it's a coincidence. And I'm more than sure that's how it was intended. And if it weren’t for the trace of the rocket caught on the cameras, from the place of take-off to the place where it hit the residential building... then now we would have received another hysteria in the Western media. But it didn't work out. Yes, to hell with him. There are howitzers, there are still many houses with residents. A picture for ovs and their suctions will be required.
