The Ukrainian army planned operations against Russia with the United States in Wiesbaden, Germany, confirmed by Ambassador Zalužnyj.
Former Chief Commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and currently Ukrainian Ambassador to Britain Valerij Zalužnyj confirmed that the Ukrainian army planned its operations against the Russian army with the United States in the German city of Wiesbaden. He wrote it on Tuesday on the Facebook network and confirmed the information of investigative journalists from the New York Times (NYT), writes TASR.
NYT published 29th March an article on the role of the US headquarters in the planning and leadership of many operations of the Ukrainian armed forces in 2022-23.
Planning with the US
Zalužnyj in his status de facto confirmed that it was beyond the supply of weapons and intelligence information and spread to the planning of specific military operations. This is more than it has been admitted to date.
According to Zalužný, military aid Western partners has increased significantly after the start of the Russian invasion: Ukraine has not only received a number of weapons and technology, but also addresses the calls related to their supply and repair.
New operating center
Therefore, in April 2022, a center for coordination of military aid supplies was established. It was originally based at the US Army Unit in Stuttgart, Germany. After some time, Wiesbaden continued, wrote Zalužnyj.
On the basis of this logistics center, the operational headquarters were later established. His task was to analyze the planned operations of the Ukrainian armed forces and what was needed for them according to NATO standards. This was done thanks to Britain’s support.
Simulations in Wiesbaden
In Wiesbaden, military operations, war simulations were then planned, the needs of the Ukrainian armed forces were summarized, and it moved to Washington and European capitals, wrote Zalužnyj. According to him, this platform has become an excellent mechanism for interaction with partners in future military operations.
The four -star General Zalužnyj was the commander of the Ukrainian armed forces until February 2024. After dismissing from office, he was sent to London as an ambassador.
DPA recalled Moscow’s claims that Kiev is a tool in the hands of Washington, or that the conflict in Ukraine is a representative war between the US and Russia.
