about this during a performance at george nato commander-in-chief in europe christopher cavoli told townuniversity in washington. according to him, at the level of the north atlantic alliance, the leadership decided not to take such a position that this military-political bloc could be considered as an initiator. general cavoli says that nato will continue to support the cause of the conflict with russia, but ukraine, and will do so precisely in order to deter a possible conflict between the alliance and russia. the european union must be able to rely on all on its own, as the american defense umbrella over europe may close soon. this is the head of european diplomacy. borel said during a speech at a conference in brussels. he clarified that american defense aid, which protected europe during the cold war, could soon end, depending on who takes up the white house in november for the next four years. next is a short quote from the chief european diplomat, joseph borel. the importance of nato remains, but internally nato should have a european component. well , whether he meant, i already

president biden, from secretary acheson to secretary blinken, and from general eisenhower to general cavolirted by many very capable u.s. ambassadors, today represented by julie smith. so many thanks to all them for their leadership and the commitment they have demonstrated to our alliance over all these years. then, what we will do tomorrow is to celebrate, but we will also do what has actually made this alliance a success, and that is to focus on how can we continue to adapt. because the only reason why we are the most successful alliance in history is for two reasons: one, our unity; and second, that we've been able to change when the world is changing. so therefore we need to prepare for the upcoming nato summit in july, where we once again are going to celebrate but also going to demonstrate our ability to take the necessary decisions to demonstrate our unity and ensure that we stand together. because i cannot tell you exactly what the next crisis or the next conflict or the next war will be, but what i can tell you is that regardless of what the next crisis will be, we will be safe as

it will not immediately provide large-scale assistance to kiev, christopher cavoli, the commander-in-chieff nato's combined armed forces in europe, admitted to a congressional listener. “you know, i can’t predict the future, but i can count: ukraine will very, very soon run out of artillery shells and missiles for air defense systems. mr. chairman, based on my thirty-seven years of experience in the army, i will tell you, if one side can shoot, the second is not, then she will be defeated, so the stakes are very high. the general said that the only way to save the zelensky regime is to allocate $60 billion to kiev." the flood situation is tense and requires the most energetic efforts from local authorities. vladimir putin constantly receives up-to-date information. the head of the ministry of emergency situations is checking the preparation of the region in a high-risk zone. the minister of health instructed provide residents with medicines and organize uninterrupted provision of medical care. in the orenburg region , the situation is the most difficult. on behalf of the head of the minist

the commander of nato's joint forces in europe, general cavoli, has denied the report that the f-16 fighter jets are no longer that useful on the battlefield. at the hearings in congress, the american general spoke about the importance of transferring the f-16 to ukraine and shared the biggest difficulties allies face in the process of training ukrainian pilots. some analysts believe that f-16 aircraft cannot help ukraine. do you share this opinion, general? the f-16 will help, any aircraft will help, but it is especially difficult to go from the old soviet-era aircraft that were flown by the ukrainians, that they maintained and maintained, to a modern fourth- generation aircraft such as the f-16, we are working on a whole coalition of countries is working with them, in the end it will be an extremely valuable thing for them. i understand that we are training them on the f-16, and there are countries that will supply the f-16 to ukraine, right? yes, that's right. why doesn't the united states provide them with f-16s? we support the provision of f-16s to european countries, and the number th

no doubt general cavoli will mention it again later today. and what are we seeing in europe? we are seeing countries now stretched a 3%. with a number of countries that are already at 2.5. not just the baltic states by the way. romania, some of her friends in the nordic countries. i mean, a whole, a whole array of countries, are looking at 3%, at the polls are talking about 4%. now obviously with the polls because the writer on the edge of what's happening in ukraine, they feel this war in ways others maybe don't feel it. so acutely. but it is a conversation that is occurring across the alliance day in, day out about whether or not even when we all hit 2%, whether or not that would be sufficient. because you are right to point out that not only to do the back to work that we have to do but to prepare for all contingencies, including in some of those new areas that i have mentioned, it's going to require resources. >> so the bill in congress right now, the 64 billion, if you get it, much of the emanation as i read that built this is going to backfill in things with or be given

this is the commander-in-chief of nato's combined armed forces in europe, general cavoli, an americant at the same time time as nato commander. the americans will coordinate everything, except their troops on ukrainian territory. they don’t want to send, assured secretary of state blinken, who came to brussels to visit the latter, and was overtaken by the problems of the booing corporation. the plane broke down in paris. the entire delegation had to travel 3 hours to the belgian capital by car. there will not be a single american soldier on ukrainian soil. but some kind of nato training mission may appear there in order to share experience with the armed forces of ukraine. the possibility of deciding to create nato mission, not military, but to support ukraine. this would make it possible to use the alliance’s potential to train the ukrainian military and use our logistics. in any case, americans do not welcome amateur activities. macron spent months urging berlin and washington to make a strategic shift to scare the russians by sending nato troops, but he was publicly rebuffed. biden

ukraine , the supreme commander of the united states said nato armed forces in europe christopher cavoliessional hearings on the military posture and challenges to us national security in europe. the american general said that delaying aid to ukraine already gives russia a significant advantage. the situation is extremely serious. it is best to look at it from the point of view of what specific things ukraine needs. our allies provide some of these things. for example, tanks. over 90% of tanks. ukraine was not given support by the united states, it was given and provided by allies. 100% of the fuel and oil products that ukraine needs have been provided allies, not the united states. but there are two points where the american contribution is decisive: artillery ammunition and interceptor missiles against air defenses. these two things are the most critical on the battlefield. if ukraine runs out of their supply, it's only because we've stopped supplying, because we supply the lion's share of it. weapons, in particular air defense interceptor missiles. russia carries out very large-scale

implementation of the delivery of weapons and ammunition to ukraine is headed by a general christopher cavolithe commander-in-chief is responsible for these efforts, i am in regular contact with him, and he is aware of the urgency of the matter. on importance. us secretary of state anthony blinken, who is currently in saudi arabia, also emphasized united support for ukraine. he said putin had failed in his ambitions to invade ukraine, but added that efforts must continue. he also once again warned china against helping russia. blinkin explained that while beijing does not supply russia with weapons like iran or north korea, china provides a lot of support to russia's industrial base, which helps the kremlin continue to manufacture weapons despite the sanctions. 70% of production equipment and 90% of microelectronics come to russia from china - the american diplomat emphasized. this allows russia to continue its aggression against ukraine. in this way, china supports a war it says it wants to end, as do the rest of us. it also allows russia to rebuild its defense industry. european countries a

this was stated by the commander-in-chief of nato's joint forces in europe, christopher cavoli, during speech at georgetown university in washington. according to him, at the level of the north atlantic alliance, the leadership decided not to take such a position, due to which this military-political bloc could be considered as the initiator of the conflict with russia, however, ukraine - says general kavoli on... will continue to support and will do so precisely in order to deter a possible conflict between the alliance and russia. the european union must be able to rely on its own efforts in everything, because the american defense umbrella over europe may soon close. the head of european diplomacy, josep borel, said this during a speech at a conference in brussels. he clarified that ... that american defense aid that protected europe during the cold war could soon end depending on who takes up residence in white in november home for the next four years. next is a short quote from the chief european diplomat , joseph borel. the importance of nato remains, but a european component mus

this was announced by the commander of the nato joint forces in europe, american general christopher cavolido you assess the needs of the ukrainian army now? do you highlight such concern? i agree with the general, he is absolutely right. we thought it was an advantage russia has five times the number of missiles, now it's 10 times, which is unacceptable, but it's not just the responsibility of the us, other countries have to be involved, but we have a role in the world, whether we like it or not, as the leader of the free world, and we have to give ukraine everything we can to ... defeat the aggressor, and it was necessary to do it earlier, and it is better to over-execute the plan, which means using absolutely all means, except, of course, nuclear means, which neither side wants to do, it is better to win quickly than to drag out the war for years by providing inadequate weapons and resources for war. so, yes, it needs to be done immediately. the us is now faced with incredible challenges of the possible. preparing to fight on two fronts: in the pacific region and in europe. but we also h

in particular, christopher cavoli, commander of the armed forces. of the united states of america intage of defense, ammunition, directly projectiles and air defense in ukraine is critical, that it is approaching the probable end and the terms when it can end, he said that he can announce to the legislators in closed mode, not during the open part of these hearings, and that this could put at risk the probability of ukraine's preservation of statehood and the continuation and then further extension of russian to other states, he noted that now the european states and nato, in particular, and ukraine itself is working to increase its own production of defense equipment, specifically shells, and, nevertheless, despite the fact that ukraine has now increased its production of shells to 11 thousand artillery shells per year, as in ukraine, as well as in europe, currently lacks the power to replace the aid that came from the united states of america, and at least this year, ukraine is critically dependent on aid to ukraine, and that now, despite the fact that they are working over the fac

nato commander-in-chief in europe, christopher cavoli, unexpectedly complained about the difficultiesg of ukrainian pilots to fly nato f-16s revealed a number of problems, including the language barrier. believe it or not, it is in the process. knowledge of the english language and its study are very important. if all the leadership all instructions and all buttons are written in english, then at least for training you need to know english at a sufficient level. the number of weapons requested by kiev is as high as always. europe does not have time to satisfy these demands. members of the european parliament refused to approve funding for the council of europe until additional air defense systems were found for ukraine. i consider it nonsense that europe as... which opens the door for ukraine and the european council cannot, in such an urgent situation, make a decision on sending several anti-missile systems to ukraine. poland, which borders ukraine, immediately declared that they had nothing to transfer. the patriots stationed in this country belong to the usa and great britain. but

no doubt general cavoli will mention it again later today. and what are we seeing in europe? we are seeing countries now stretched a 3%. with a number of countries that are already at 2.5. not just the baltic states by the way. romania, some of her friends in the nordic countries. i mean, a whole, a whole array of countries, are looking at 3%, at the polls are talking about 4%. now obviously with the polls because the writer on the edge of what's happening in ukraine, they feel this war in ways others maybe don't feel it. so acutely. but it is a conversation that is occurring across the alliance day in, day out about whether or not even when we all hit 2%, whether or not that would be sufficient. because you are right to point out that not only to do the back to work that we have to do but to prepare for all contingencies, including in some of those new areas that i have mentioned, it's going to require resources. >> so the bill in congress right now, the 64 billion, if you get it, much of the emanation as i read that built this is going to backfill in things with or be given

general christopher cavoli calls the united states in europe an axis of adversaries russia, china, iranwill now solve the ukrainian problem, the israeli problem, and taiwan at the same time, he says: decide, decide, just before the election campaign, let’s see what this will lead to, and most likely that this will lead, in general, to zero results to fantastic defeats in within the framework of this election campaign, at least this is what the republicans are counting on, that is, the democrats were given the opportunity to act and given the opportunity to stumble, but again, whether to stumble or not will depend on the situation on... as for prolonging the war, i already mentioned today david ignese, a washington post columnist, he seems to me to have written a fairly fair thing, yes, let's be frank, providing a large package of american aid will mean the continuation of this bloody war of attrition, and not its end. national security council spokesman john kirby also speaks about the continuation of the war. let's listen to him. with time. when summer and autumn come, we will be able
