The West risks running out of ammunition, Nato’s chief said yesterday, as he also warned Vladimir Putin is ‘preparing for more war’ in Ukraine.
Jens Stoltenberg told the 30 countries from the military alliance that they need to step up deliveries to ensure Ukraine can fight back against Russian aggression.
Ahead of a two-day meeting of Nato defence ministers in Brussels, the former Norwegian prime minister said: ‘This has become a grinding war of attrition and therefore it’s also a battle of logistics. This is a huge effort by allies to actually be able to get in the ammunition, the fuel, the spare parts, which are needed.’
He added: ‘We see no signs that President Putin is preparing for peace. What we see is the opposite, he is preparing for more war, for new offensives and new attacks.’

Ukrainian officials say Moscow is plotting a much broader offensive on the eastern Donbas regions, but also fresh attacks on Kharkiv in the northeast and Zaporizhzhia in the country’s south-east. It comes after a British national died in Ukraine.
The identity of the individual – the eighth UK citizen to die in the conflict – is not yet known, but their family has been informed, the Foreign Office said.
Ukraine’s armed forces are firing some 6,000 artillery shells a day, far faster than their Western allies can resupply them.
Russia is using as much as 20,000 rounds a day equivalent to what European factories can produce in a month. But there is yet no decision on supplying Western fighter jets to the Ukrainian military.
Kyiv has demanded urgent air support that has been met with a mixed response from allies.
Oleksiy Reznikov, Ukraine’s defence minister, yesterday held up an image of a fighter jet when asked what he wanted from the meeting aimed at providing more weapons to the country.
The US and the UK have ruled out handing jets for now, but Britain has announced a training programme for Ukrainian fighter pilots.
Dutch defence minister Kajsa Ollongren said the Netherlands was taking Ukraine’s request for F-16 jets ‘very seriously’. Her Polish counterpart Mariusz Blaszczak vowed ‘to apply pressure’ on fellow Western allies.
‘We are aware that our potential in this area is limited because we have only 48 F-16 aircraft, but the allies have much more potential, so I think that this conversation will end with positive decisions,’ he said.
Mr Stoltenberg insisted that the topic of aircraft ‘is not the most urgent issue now, but it is an ongoing discussion’.
‘The urgent need now is to deliver what has already been promised. The armoured infantry fighting vehicles, and other battle tanks that have been pledged,’ he said.
US defence secretary Lloyd Austin said as many as 15 Nato countries have promised to send Ukraine battle tanks and 22 are set to provide infantry fighting vehicles. ‘The Kremlin is still betting that it can wait us out,’ he said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky failed to receive any concrete pledges on jets during his tour of London, Paris, and Brussels last week.

I would like to see the day when Stoltenberg and other armchair warriors pick up a weapon and head to the frontlines of Ukraine just like how once the Belarussian president Aleksandr Lukashenko did by picked-up a Kalashnikov and headed into the foray a couple of years back to quash some color revolution instigations. Talk is not only cheap these coward people are indulging in dangerous talk because their soft behinds are safely protected by their office walls and forcing those in need to go serve as mercenaries as the only means of earning a living honestly..

This is the size of Putin’s penis..
and it is the real reason why the butthurt and retarded Norweigians had to blow up the Nordstream.
Now you know thanks to me.
NATO told Russia they’re running out of ammo. That’s vital intel right there. And they gave it away. Not only do most NATO members deserve to get their asses kicked, they’re going to. Then f*** off forever.

Ya and thanks for your visual interpretation.
“Jens Stoltenberg” is the biggest idiot Norway has ever produced, he is on par with Canadian/Cuban retard Justin Castreau. These types of psychotic personalities are very easy to control as they will do absolutely anything to feed their vanity, they do not understand consequence and even if they did, they would not care. This only happens in “democracies” as they are selected, and portrayed as “leaders”, when in actuality, they cannot even find their own a**.
Kaftan Longshanks is spot on in his comment above. It is something I frequently propose as well; if you are a politician or bureaucrat who keeps barking for war, then it should be required they be the first to go in the vanguard. Frothing festering c*nts such as Stoltenberg, Kajsa Ollongren, Mariusz Blaszczak, and EVERY Jewmerican neoconkike should be issued a rifle, kitted out, have a parachute strapped on, forced onto planes, and shoved out over the front. “Let’s hear your war cry now, bitch! No no, that’s just regular crying and the sounds of you shitting your pants. What happened to the bravado?”
Stoltenberg, Ollongren, Blaszczak, Nuland, Kagan, and so many others should have the ever living piss beaten out of them, their kneecaps shattered, their tongues cut out and stuffed up their a**holes, then get strung up by the ankles and gutted with a stout knife from sternum to the top of their reeking genitalia.

I am always impressed by the colorful descriptions of how these vermin people should be punished. A single demonstration will surely get them back into their empty heads in no time at all!
