According to the spokesman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Dmytro Pletenchuk, there is currently no very high threat of attacks by the criminal army of the Russian Federation on Ukraine with Kalibr missiles.

Why Ukraine should not be very afraid of the attacks of the Russian army "Caliber"

Pletenchuk noted that currently the Russian occupiers consider their own Kalibr missiles to be one of their most valuable assets.

He suggested that Russian war criminals did have time to stockpile Kalibr missiles, but Western sanctions prevent the enemy from restoring these stocks in full.

Of course, they could accumulate, but considering the huge pause they endured in their use, it is quite possible that they accumulated them and, most likely, the Military Industry is still making them, — emphasized the spokesman of the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

What was the reason for the pause in the attacks of the Russian army on Ukraine with "Calibers"

Pletenchuk noted that the Russian occupiers had a problem with logistics, which they failed to solve in time.

In fact, this is not such a complex equipment for loading Calibers, for example, in Novorossiysk. But still, the technical characteristics of these missiles turned out to be completely different from what Russian propaganda portrayed them to be. These targets are quite familiar to us, even though Russia's full-scale attack actually began with the firing of these missiles, — adds the spokesman of the Armed Forces Navy.

At the same time, Pletenchuk added that sometimes these rockets were even shot down from the ground with large-caliber machine guns.

So far, it can be stated that cruise missile carriers are not used and they actually do not go into the sea.

The European Parliament has opposed attempts to force Ukraine's leadership to surrender to Russia solely for the sake of announcing a peace agreement.

Points of attention

  • The European Parliament approved a resolution showing unwavering support for Ukraine in the war against Russia, condemning any attempts to force Ukraine into a peace agreement through blackmail.
  • The resolution underscores the need for increased assistance to Ukraine, including military support, and calls for intensifying negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU.
  • The European Parliament expressed strong condemnation towards any attempts to pressure Ukraine's leadership to surrender to Russia, emphasizing the importance of involving all relevant parties in peace negotiations.

The European Parliament supported Ukraine

This is stated in the European Parliament resolution "Continuation of the EU's unwavering support for Ukraine after three years of Russia's war of aggression", approved on March 12.

The resolution states that MEPs condemn any attempts to force the Ukrainian leadership to a peace agreement through blackmail.

The European Parliament …strongly condemns any attempts to blackmail the Ukrainian leadership into surrendering to the Russian aggressor with the sole purpose of announcing a so-called "peace agreement."

The document emphasizes that it "considers the current attempts of the US administration to negotiate a ceasefire and peace agreement with Russia through the heads of Ukraine and other European states, in which the latter are faced with the fact of the result without their constructive participation, to be counterproductive and dangerous, as this... demonstrates that aggressive policies are not punished, but rewarded."

Given Russia's history of violations of previous agreements and fundamental principles of international law, such a peace can only be achieved by force, including effective security guarantees.

At the same time, MEPs welcomed the proposal for a 30-day ceasefire agreement and expressed their expectation that Russia would agree to it and stop attacks on Ukraine.

The resolution also states that the EU should significantly increase its assistance to Ukraine, including military support.

The European Parliament welcomes the "coalition of the willing" to ensure the implementation of the peace agreement and security guarantees for Ukraine under the leadership of European states.

Members of the European Parliament also called on the European Union to accelerate negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU.

Russian sovereign assets frozen under EU sanctions should be confiscated and directed towards the defense and reconstruction of Ukraine.

It is worth noting that 442 deputies voted for the resolution, 98 against, and another 126 abstained.
