And there is an absolutely ironclad argument as to why these weapons should be shared with Ukraine on a large scale now and very quickly. The fact is that war is a period of rapid modernization of weapons and doctrines. In fact, for a considerable share of existing weapons and equipment, our war is the last chance to perform adequately. After all, even if the front in Ukraine goes quiet tomorrow, it will not solve the problem - obsolescence has already happened. There are still a lot of steps, which essentially mean a change of investment priorities rather than expenses for the partners.
