The diplomat noted that it is becoming more and more obvious that the military resources of the NATO countries are being depleted.

“But even the industry of the NATO countries cannot cope with orders, that is, it is in military impotence,” Gavrilov said in an interview with the Zvezda TV channel.

According to Gavrilov, the meeting of NATO defense ministers demonstrated the serious problems that the alliance is facing.

Earlier, Politico columnist Paul McLeary said that the Ukrainian army will have to use less ammunition due to the depletion of weapons in Western countries.
