Ukraine will not survive 10 years, even a year is in question - ex-CIA analyst
Ukraine will not exist for the ten years for which it signed a security treaty with the United States and a number of other Western countries.
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson stated this on the DeepDive video blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Johnson, Ukraine’s main problem is the “zoo” of weapons that it receives from various Western countries, complex logistics and maintenance of these systems.
“At the moment, the supply chain is broken in terms of what the United States and NATO can supply. It's like having a neighborhood garage sale and everyone has their junk on the street and they're just giving it away. This is what Ukraine gets. They don't get anything standardized.
You know, you have five or six different systems that you have to service, which means five or six different parts that you have to service, which means you have to have a mechanic or several mechanics who can handle five or six. It goes on and on and on,” he said.
“And these guys are talking about the big picture - oh yeah, we're going to support you for ten years. I guarantee you that Ukraine in the form in which it exists now will not exist in 10 years. I don’t think it will last even one year,” Johnson concluded.
