The United States is hosting war planning exercises in Germany for Ukrainian military officers to help them think through upcoming battlefield decisions ahead of the next phase of the year-old conflict with Russia.
The multi-day exercises have been carried out at a war-gaming facility at a U.S. Army base in Wiesbaden, Germany. The drills come on the heels of the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
In a statement, U.S. Army General Christopher Cavoli said that all we are doing is setting up the framework and the mechanics to allow the Ukrainians to self-learn, to learn against a situation, or various scenarios.
He further said that the US would stand with Ukraine for “as long as it takes.” Earlier, United States and its allies have committed billions of dollars of military aid to Ukraine, including Bradley fighting vehicles, tanks and advanced air defenses.
