A couple minutes left is when I ask you one
last question.
Of course Vladimir Putin has been inaugurated today for his,
I believe it's his another six year term as president,
effectively becoming president for life here in Russia.
Because you know, you talked about technology and satellite technology
being so crucial to the way Ukraine has fought the
war.
They are finally now getting weapons from the US after
Congress has finally passed the $61 billion aid package.
Just very briefly, what are your thoughts on what the
rest of the year looks like for Ukraine?
Whether this weaponry is going to be decisive as they
try and push Russia back.
So I don't think it'll be decisive this year.
I think the the, the great thing about this weapons
package is it's enough to to stretch into the next
administration.
Whether that's Biden or Trump,
obviously we don't know, but $61 billion will go a
long way.
I think that the job for Ukraine this year is
to hold tight,
to consolidate their lines to use the new Atacums long
range missiles.
Strike at Russian targets within occupied Ukraine,
in Crimea, in the Donbass,
really make life difficult for the Russians in their forward
logistics positions,
make it tough for them to stay where they are.
But in terms of a real Ukrainian breakout to push
the Russians back as they try to do unsuccessfully last
year,
I think that's going to wait for next year.
