This is CBS I on the world with John Bachelor.

Here's John Bachelor.

To London, the Telegraph.

Ukrainian soldiers forced to ration ammunition.

A senior of Ukrainian artillery brigade officer told the Financial Times,

indeed there's really not enough ammunition.

This comes as NATO has signed a $1.2 billion deal to buy hundreds of thousands of artillery shells as it moves to shore up supplies

amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Caviad about that purchase.

According to the Financial Times, the shells to be purchased are either for Ukraine or for

to replenish the arsenals that were depleted by passing ammunition to Ukraine early in the war. I can join this with the news, well not news, the facts from Congress.

There is zero to unlikely possibility of the request by the Biden administration moving

through this Congress.

The Republican House is not set on it, and the influence of the campaign means that there's no risk

taking whatsoever challenging the opinion of the former president that Ukraine is none of our affair or we're not going to continue

to contribute to the war in Ukraine. You can take it in many directions. The fact is that the House will not move, even the Senate has not come up with a satisfactory

compromise about the many demands at the border in the Gaza War in Taiwan and in Ukraine. Not satisfied. So I welcome Mary

Kessel, Executive Vice President Stevens Incorporated, former Senior Advisor to the Secretary of State.

It's unfair to present Mary with a no-win scenario, but that's where we are right now, so we're

going to entertain what comes after a ceasefire and armistice a negotiation a peace deal there

are many ways to approach this metaphorically however out of ammunition out of time out of ammunition, out of time, out of money.

Mary, a very good evening to you.
