“In Allied nations, a week is a week. In Ukraine, a week is a mother, a father, child, a friend, a lover... lost forever.” ~ NATO Military Committee Chief, Rob Bauer 🇺🇦💙💛🇺🇦
#Repost @weareukraine.info with @use.repost . . . In an address to the Kyiv Security Forum taking place on March 20-21, 2024, NATO Military Committee Chief Rob Bauer called on Western allies to step up their support for Ukraine, stressing that “time in Ukraine is not measured in days, weeks or months – it is measured in human lives.”
In a first NATO military delegation visit to Ukraine since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Bauer stressed that the outcome of Russia’s war will “shape the fate of the world.” He emphasised that Ukraine has “fundamentally changed many aspects of modern warfare.”
“Confronted with a combination of World War One trenches and artillery barrages and 21st century drone warfare and artificial intelligence, you have quickly adapted and fought back. You are pioneering with innovation, using combinations of Soviet style equipment with modern Western materiel. There is nothing you cannot do. The only thing you need… is our help. Ukraine needs even more support – and you need it now. In Allied nations, a week is a week. In Ukraine, a week is a mother, a father, child, a friend, a lover... lost forever.”
“It would be a grave, historic mistake to allow President Putin to prevail. This would be dangerous for us all,” Bauer underscored. The NATO Military Committee Chief highlighted the Ukrainians‘ “strength and resilience - мужність [‚courage‘]” and noted that Ukraine’s victory is assured with the continuous help of its allies. “Ви не самі - you are not alone,”Bauer said.
