"Assuming that we, the West, now not most effective proceed however accelerate the birth of the capabilities the Ukrainians need, I think inside the subsequent 10 days that Russia goes to culminate, which skill they are usually not capable of continue the attack any additional," Hodges spoke of. "So, it's kind of a race, definitely, if we give the Ukrainians adequate on the way to out surv ive Russia."
