Further problems with trying to supply Ukraine with weapons on an ongoing basis, are that many of the necessary raw materials come from Russia and China and that much of the machinery needed to gear up for producing e.g. ammunition would also largely have to come from China. Also, not touched upon in either the Rand study or your talk about it, is the continuing de-dollarization of the world's commerce and the consequent flood of dollars onto the world's markets. I am reminded of the sign one often sees in France, by road-works, by deep hole or impossibly rough patches,: "Passage difficile."
