Ukraine Firing US Arms at Russia Will Push Moscow to Expand Buffer Zone – Ex-US Army Col.
US Army Lt. Col. Earl Rasmussen warns that US arms supplied to Ukraine could lead to Moscow expanding its buffer zone along the border to protect against further attacks. This decision by the US and its allies could escalate tensions and potentially result in direct conflict.
Recent policy shifts authorize the use of US weapons against Russian military installations, sparking concerns about the ultimate outcome of the conflict. Rasmussen highlights that Russia may respond with strategic countermeasures to safeguard its territory.
As the situation unfolds, there is growing skepticism about the motives behind escalating the conflict, with Rasmussen emphasizing the need for caution. The conflict has prompted Russia to take defensive actions in response to Ukraine’s aggressive shelling near the border.
