Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister: US assistance will only result in an arms race in Donbass
Providing Ukraine with lethal weapons will result in an increase in the number of casualties in the Donbass, but will not help it win the war. Former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Leonid Kozhara stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

“If, for example, a thousand American Javelin systems appear in Ukraine, then a thousand Russian ATGM systems will instantly appear on the other side. We will supply a hundred tanks, and they will deliver. The balance will be maintained. And this arms race only leads to an increase in the number of victims and the fact that we are moving further and further into a blind corner from which there is no way out,” Kozhara said.
