According to him, in the near future the United States will not provide Ukraine with lethal weapons.
“Obama will not release lethal weapons in the near future. I communicated with the White House and the State Department, and with the Senate. There was a whole team of representatives of the Republican and Democratic bloc. They confirmed this, so we need to get rid of illusions. Through military-technical cooperation, we will receive some technologies from a number of countries. This will be the basis for us to make these weapons ourselves,” Malomuzh said.
According to him, Ukraine has its own wine-industrial potential, which is not in many ways inferior to the West.
“We have the ability to produce our Abrams and Oplot tanks for a whole year. If you generate all the possibilities, up to 200 units per year. We don’t use our potential, but rely on someone,” Malomuzh added.
