NATO countries have not delivered what they promised to Ukraine in time, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said on Monday.
This has allowed Russia to press its advantage on the battlefield, while Kyiv’s depleted forces wait for military supplies from the US and Europe, the NATO chief added.
"Serious delays in support have meant serious consequences on the battlefield” for Ukraine, Stoltenberg told a news conference in Kyiv with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Ukraine was recently compelled to make a tactical retreat from three villages in the east, where the Kremlin's forces have been making incremental gains, Ukraine's army chief said on Sunday.

“Where’s my bribe money?”
Sorry, Jens, Ukraine is not NATO.
“Serious delays in support have meant serious consequences on the battlefield”for Ukraine

Larger consequences are coming from severe shortage of deployable trained soldiers. Losses due to death and maiming are not being completely replaced.
“Tactical Retreat” = Run For Your Life.
What? Too slow for ya?
Well, how about you send some of your own arms and ammunition, then...
You can give a force all the weapons it wants, it has to have available bodies to use those arms. Another attempt to use other people’s blood to fight a war is heading for the same result as other attempts in the past.
Because they have no intention of delivering everything they promised. They are letting the US carry the load.
They aren’t NATO ya fool. NATO needs to be disbanded.
How about getting on Germany’s case over the fact that the German government walked back its promise to legally commit itself to meeting NATO’s 2% military spending target on an annual basis. FU Jens.
The BIG PROBLEM is that it’s far easier to print money than to print weapons, or factories, or supply lines, particularly when you have a bunch of old-age Hippies RUNNING OUR MILITARY.
