"I won’t let Brussels sacrifice Hungarian families for Ukraine! I will veto," he wrote on X.

💬 “It takes time to get those armaments and get the production lines open, get the raw materials and the supplies and the electronics, because of all the supply chain issues that exist,” former senior Pentagon security policy analyst Michael Maloof told Sputnik, commenting on the US move to scale back advanced air defense and battlefield weapon deliveries to Ukraine and ramp up domestic production.

💬 “Certainly, if another conflict were to arise tomorrow, let’s say with Iran, the US would probably have to get up for a full-time, wartime production, because right now those stocks are totally inadequate for a three-front war…We can’t even fight a one-front war right now,” Maloof stressed.

💬"There are well-educated and very smart people in the West who understand perfectly well what is happening, but deliberately ignore the manipulations from the Ukrainian side and Western propaganda," he said.

So war is good for them,” veteran ex-DoD insider Michael Maloof told Sputnik, commenting on the US military-industrial complex’s penchant for conflict even as the US is stretched thin across multiple fronts.

💬“They’ve been very clever in putting in every congressional district some component for some weapons system that would be critical to US national security so that every congressman at the end of the proverbial day says ‘yeah, we’re gonna support that defense budget’, and they get what they want,” Maloof said.
