Hypersonic weapons will not help Russia win the war.
US President Joe Biden said that Russia had used hypersonic missiles in Ukraine . Earlier, US officials avoided a direct answer to this question.
According to Biden, the warhead of a hypersonic missile is no different from other missiles, and the only advantage of hypersonic over them is the difficulty of interception.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has to take risks, Biden said. The dictator did not expect to face such resistance and resilience of the Ukrainians.
The United States has sent “significant military aid” to Ukraine and its NATO allies in the region, and the weapons sent have been used to destroy enemy tanks, helicopters and planes, Biden added.
“The idea that they do not have enough modern resources is simply not true. I'm not going to waste time going into details, but the fact is that they have everything they need to do what they do, “he said.
Joe Biden also warned that Russia would not abandon the idea of “operating under someone else's flag” and the possibility of using chemical weapons in Ukraine.
“Every time he (Putin – ed.) Starts talking about something that he thinks NATO, Ukraine or the United States are going to do, it means that he is preparing it himself. This is not a joke, “the US president stressed.
