Russia uses very outdated equipment and weapons in the war against Ukraine.

Moreover, due to sanctions, the Russian economy is falling, so a turning point is brewing.

Military expert Serhii Grabskyi said this in a comment to "UNIAN".

According to the expert, the economy of the aggressor country simply cannot withstand the load and pressure of sanctions.

"Mobilization into the Russian army simply washes the working hands," he said.

Grabskyi also noted that the internal political and economic processes in the country will lead to the fact that Russia will simply not be able to wage battles.

At the same time, the expert did not name the period of the end of the aggression.

"I cannot say that after the New Year, but we will see this situation," he said.

According to Grabskyi, Russia is using tanks from the 60s and guns from Stalin's time in the war against Ukraine, because it did not create any kind of weapons on its own.

All that the aggressor country has is, at best, modernization of Soviet weapons.

"The Russians use mainly Soviet stockpiles of weapons, which have been created since the Second World War and are in storage bases... It was clear from the beginning that Russia was not preparing for such a war as it received on the territory of Ukraine. There is no powerful base of military of an industrial complex, which at one time was primitively looted. (...) Basically, Russians use Soviet equipment, of which there is a lot. It is necessary to understand that this equipment was accumulated for more than 50 years," the expert added.

We will remind, previously the adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Mykhailo Podolyak, stated that every missile attack by Russia on critical infrastructure should lift the "taboo" on the supply of modern types of weapons from Ukraine's allies.
