Will US Weapons Help End the War — Opinions of Odessa Residents.

After the United States announced its readiness to provide Ukraine 'with all necessary weapons not only for defense but also for the liberation of territories,' many Ukrainians saw this as a reason for optimism. There are those who perceive these words as cautious promises, as Russian aggression has continued for the fourth year, and there are no exact timelines for the end of the war.

When asked by journalists whether Odessa residents believe that American weapons will force Russia to retreat, people responded with a certain faith in victory, but with suspicion about the realities. They understand that even the most modern weapons are not a universal solution to the conflict, but they remain positive and confident that Ukraine will ultimately prevail.

The United States' statement about its readiness to provide Ukraine with necessary weapon assistance has prompted both optimistic hopes and some doubts among Ukrainians. They are aware that assistance has its limits, yet they still believe in the nation's victory during the war with Russia.
