militias will iranian militias will come back and attempt to harass some more. if it s rocket and ballistic missile attacks, most of them do not hit anywhere near the targets. there are very poorly aimed and not very accurate. the thing that concerns me is the increasing use of these militias using drone strikes the so called kamikaze or suicide drums. that is more precise and they can aim them in. most of these bases like our l z and the green village, which oranges talked about have good air defense capability for these kind of things. but in the first case what occurred the other night when that when that that base was struck, there evidently is, the pentagon reported one of the avenger missile systems was down for a reason, and it could be mechanics. warfare is not perfect. and you bring up the same point general wesley clark did with me this morning. the fact of the strikes isn t new. it s to precision. which seems to raise the stakes here in his worth watching. how much communica

to take back their sovereign territory we ll be there with them. and that is what it means. so as long as ukraine is fighting. yes, and you can see that the international community will be with them. the things we are doing and the capability we are providing again, capability not just a platform. i think it will enable the ukrainians to begin to change the dynamics on the battlefield. and so rather than having a stalemate, what you will probably see is ukrainians shaping this fight so they can create opportunities for themselves. what specifically do you think will change the dynamics on the battlefield that the u.s. and nato allies are providing? we are training and equipping several brigades of mechanized
vehicles. that is another infantry fighting vehicle. and the germans are providing mortars and the swedes providing infrantry fighting vehicles. and we are pulling all of this capability together and it s the not just platforms, we are already training troops on the platform as we get them into the country. and training them on combined arms maneuver, that will help them be more affective. one thing we keep hearing from the president when he was just in ukraine and we were in poland with him. is that the united states is with ukraine as long as it takes. can you define that? as long as it takes until they win or what? as long as ukraine continues to conduct operations and works
ukrainian leadership. if the u.s. says it s as long as it takes is that until all russians are out of ukrainian territory? again i don t want to define things for president zelensky and the ukrainian people. on the weaponry we heard president zelensky say they want more sophisticated weaponry. is the u.s. going to ultimately provide those to ukraine? i don t have an announcement to make on f-16s. i am focused on they have the capability to be successful in this next fight. and what they need more is the air defense capability. and we are trying to get as much into the country as quickly as possible. you know, i meet with ministers of defense from nato and from
