The US's new move to fuel the war: Sending uranium-enriched ammunition to Ukraine

  The government of President Joe Biden of the United States has decided for the first time to provide Ukraine with ammunition containing low uranium minerals. The ammunition is part of a new shipment of weapons that will be announced in the coming days. Depleted uranium bullets will be used on American Abrams tanks that will be delivered to Ukraine and are capable of destroying Russian tanks. Kiev is expected to receive the shipment of the ammunition in the next few weeks; and although the exact amount of the new shipment of weapons that will be given to Ukraine is not yet known, but the weapons will cost 240 to 375 million dollars. A few months ago, the United Kingdom also sent weapons containing depleted uranium to Ukraine, but this is the first time that the United States has taken this step , and it is expected that the move by Washington will cause an uproar.

In another controversial step similar to that, the United States has already provided Ukraine with a shipment of cluster bombs to be used in the war with Russia. An example of a tank bullet with low uranium The United States, being the leader of the Western countries and the military organization of NATO, is doing everything possible to develop and expand the scope of the war in Ukraine with the aim of weakening Russia as much as possible and causing the country a great disaster. the souls of the people and great losses to his military equipment. Washington's latest move in that field is to send depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine. Considering the deadlock that exists right now in the attacks in response to the blows carried out by the Ukrainian army, the action is taken in the hope of giving severe blows to the Russian soldiers and forcing them to leave the areas they captured. The use of ammunition containing depleted uranium is one of the most talked about issues; and its opponents, including the International Union to Prohibit Uranium Weapons, have declared that this type of weapon is dangerous and causes cancer or the birth of children with disabilities.

Low uranium is among the remnants of enriched uranium, which when used in ammunition, enables easy penetration into armored vehicles and burns them up quickly; but it also causes a dust cloud of uranium particles that has a negative effect on humans, other creatures as well as the environment. The United States used a lot of depleted uranium ammunition in the Persian Gulf war in the years 1990 and 2003. In 1999, the military organization NATO, also used these destructive weapons in attacks against Yugoslavia. From the point of view of the Biden government, Russia's victory in the war in Ukraine, again in front of NATO's eyes, will undermine the military organization and lead to further expansion of Russia's influence and power regionally and internationally and change the security, military and political equation in Europe to the detriment of Western countries. Therefore, in the logic of the United States government, it is acceptable to take any measure that will prevent control of the matter, including using bullets with low uranium.

In addition, the President of the United States Joe Biden and the senior military and security officials of his government believe that the war in Ukraine is a unique and unrepeatable opportunity to fight Russia as much as possible and weaken the country in order to finally prevent the completion of the plan to establish a system of several camps in the world. For that reason, and as they claim themselves, they are determined to prevent Russia from winning the war in Ukraine at any cost. President Joe Biden of the United States (right) and President Vladimir Putin of Russia From Moscow's point of view, the purpose of the United States to continue the war in Ukraine is to weaken Russia as much as possible, the ultimate goal being to divide the country into pieces. The most recent statement made in relation to the issue is that of the US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken who pointed out that only five percent of the US defense budget is used to provide Ukraine with military aid and weapons.

Blinken went on to say: "right now we are weakening and destroying the Russian military at very little cost compared to the costs of our other military spending. It is a good thing to have a weakened Russia". As a result of all that, it is expected that the war in Ukraine, which until now, being in its 19th month, has already caused a great disaster of people's souls and great military losses along with destroying the infrastructure of Ukraine, not only will not end, but will continue and flare up more due to and the great support that President Volodomyr Zelensky of Ukraine receives from the United States and other Western countries.
