The former FSB officer turned military blogger said China's cooperation was needed for Russia to win in Ukraine.
Monitoring, Girkin said that China"is the only country that could give us a lend-lease to continue this war with any level of success." He said this lend-lease needed to include ammunition, shells and artillery propellants"which are catastrophically lacking."
Igor Girkin, a former Russian Federal Security Service officer and prominent military blogger is pictured in Moscow on September 27, 2022. He has said that Russia needs China's help to win in the invasion of Ukraine.Without this cooperation from Beijing, he believes that Russia"won't just be unable to fight for as long as we want—we could simply find ourselves naked and barefoot in every sense against the enemy as early as the middle or end of this year.
Girkin, who also goes by the name Strelkov, lamented how there were insufficient supplies for battalions of mobilized men and other units in Russia's forces and that at some point"we won't even be able to replace the artillery systems which we have lost."
