Retired US intelligence officer Ritter: Kyiv is aware of the sad state of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Thus, he commented on the words of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky about the belated deliveries of American Abrams tanks to Kyiv. 

“What do you mean too late?

This means that everything is over, and Zelensky knows it, ”Ritter said.

According to him, Western countries are also not confident in the victory of Ukraine, so they send the Armed Forces of Ukraine "equipment that will not work."

Earlier, Zelenskiy said it would be "too late" if US M1 Abrams tanks arrived in Ukraine by August.

On January 25, US President Joe Biden confirmed that Washington would transfer 31 M1 Abrams tanks to Kyiv.
