President Zelenskyy’s bold statement about Ukraine potentially losing the war if Congress doesn’t send more aid has sparked a heated debate and raised important questions about the role of international support in conflicts. The stark reality is that in modern warfare, logistics play a crucial role, and without sufficient aid and resources, even the most determined infantry can falter. The comparison to the United States’ invasion of Iraq, with reports of shortages of essential supplies, serves as a stark reminder of the critical importance of logistical support in sustaining a war effort.
