The Russians identified a reality that the West has already acknowledged, that the Ukrainians are using up more ammunition than what the United States could produce per month. However, the Russians also face a similar challenge. The United States is not the only Western country providing military equipment and rounds related support to Ukraine. The article shows a video where a Russian TV commentator suggests that if a country attempts to arrest Vladimir Putin, that country should receive a missile strike.<\/p>\n

From Newsweek:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Putin said Russia would produce and upgrade a total of 1,600 modern tanks within the next three years, as well as tripling production of ammunition.<\/p>\n

He also claimed Ukraine uses 5,000 shells every day, with the U.S. producing between 14,000 and 15,000 each month.<\/p>\n

The Kremlin leader’s comments, arguing that the West cannot keep up with current aid to Ukraine, was intended to “create the false impression” that supporting Ukraine is “futile,” the ISW said.<\/p>\n

Yet Putin’s comments are “not supportable,” the ISW argued, saying the U.S. and other Western countries would face economic decisions about large quantities of military aid, “but the choices they face are nothing like as hard as those confronting Russia.”<\/p>\n

These Western nations do not need to adopt a “wartime footing” to back Kyiv, which is what Moscow must do to keep up its current military operations, the think tank continued.<\/p>\n

Putin’s comments “do not reflect current Russian realities or the balance of economic power or military industrial capacity between Russia and the collective West,” according to the ISW.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
