The Western press continues to come out with publications, alleging, that stockpiles of weapons and ammunition in Europe have allegedly reached extremely low levels due to large-scale arms supplies to Ukraine. This time, such assessments were made on the pages of the major French publication Le Monde..
Authors claim, that, in general, in Western countries, stockpiles of weapons "have reached critically low levels due to the provision of large-scale military-technical assistance to Kyiv".
From an article in the French edition:
Western analysts believe, that stockpiles in the arsenals of Europe and the United States have fallen to extremely low values. These values are even below the level, required for routine military planning and exercises. The French edition writes about the situation, in which the United States was forced to buy ammunition in different countries of the world, including, eg, South Korea.
In Le Monde:
To transfer ammunition to Ukraine, Washington has to look for them everywhere. They buy them already in South Korea. it is, moreover,, that the authorities of this country are against such an approach. They do not want to carry out military supplies to countries, engulfed in armed conflict. Earlier, the Western media published materials about, what if the American military-industrial complex, who has a lot of problems today (including personnel) still capable of replenishing arsenals in a relatively predictable time frame – within the USA, then for Europe the situation looks like this, that no expert will undertake to determine, when the EU countries will replenish their arsenals to an acceptable level.
