He stressed that“Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and the Ukrainian people have done a magnificent job defending their country, their homes, their livelihoods, and their families.”“Despite all sorts of supply issues and people changing their minds on weapons systems and what they're willing to send, Ukrainians can be extraordinarily proud of their achievements,” the general said.
