On the 25th of this month, Ukraine's Cherkasy Oblast was hit by a Russian airstrike, in which Russian warplanes successfully hit a Ukrainian warehouse and destroyed some railways and transportation hubs. Not only that, but it also hit a train, causing casualties among many soldiers on the Ukrainian side, and at the same time, Ukraine lost a lot of weapons and equipment in this attack.

Now the shortage of weapons in Ukraine is already a well-known thing, and Zelensky also thought of a way to "eat two fish", Zelensky shouted to the United States and NATO, hoping that European and American countries can buy weapons and equipment produced by Ukraine, and then all these weapons and equipment will be provided to Ukraine free of charge.
Hearing such an idea, even the United States had to pat its thigh again and again to express its admiration. If European and American countries really do this, how much money can Zelensky make. First of all, the arms fee must have been earned, and then it was sent directly to the Ukrainian soldiers on the spot without having to ship it to the buying country, which saved a lot of military expenses, not only that, but even the transportation costs were saved, and this arms game was played clearly by Zelensky.
In fact, it was really helpless for Zelensky to think of such a strange method. Now that the Russian-Ukrainian war has been fought for more than two years, Putin will be officially re-elected as president of Russia next month.
Once Putin comes to power, it means that Ukraine must be completely defeated before this war can stop. In the more than 20 years since Putin officially became president of Russia, Putin has been dealing with the Chechen issue, the Georgian conflict, and the subsequent anti-terrorist operation.
What's more, this time Ukraine has come to a line with the United States and NATO, for a tough guy like Putin, it is absolutely intolerable, NATO's expansion to Russia's doorstep means that NATO can attack Russia at any time, so at least let Ukraine remain neutral. Even the United States is anxiously preparing to start deploying missiles in Cuba, let alone Ukraine, which borders Russia on land.
Moreover, it is also related to Putin's own age, the outside world only sees Putin's tough side, thinking that this man already represents Russia, but this year's Putin is 72 years old and has reached the age of retirement, although now Biden is over eighty, and Trump is almost eighty. However, these two have not been presidents for more than 20 years in a row, let alone in the high-pressure position of the Russian president, how long Putin can lead Russia and how far he can go, it is unknown.
Therefore, Putin naturally wants to solve Russia's problems during his term of office. In this way, there is no need to leave a mess for the successor, just like Kennedy at the beginning, the Vietnam War was assassinated before it ended, leaving Johnson with so many things, and even the successor Johnson was not done, and it was not until Nixon succeeded in withdrawing from the Vietnam War that he was delayed.
Therefore, both public and private, Putin wants to end the Russian-Ukrainian war as soon as possible, which can be regarded as dedicating himself to the motherland and paving the way for his successor. However, Zelensky is still stubbornly resisting and facing many difficulties in order to achieve his goal.
In the face of such a powerful offensive by Putin, the pressure on Zelensky can be imagined. And now Ukraine is really completely defeated, asking the United States and NATO for money is the only way out, recently, Zelensky is still preparing to build several infantry brigades, naturally a large number of weapons are needed for training, and a huge amount of money is needed to build these new forces.
Moreover, after a long period of consumption, the ammunition of the Russian army is also consumed hugely, after all, the land area of Ukraine is also relatively large, and there are many targets in its territory, and even ordinary civilian warehouses can be transformed into military warehouses.
