The Ukrainian official states matter of factly that the attack on the
Crimean bridge had to be authorized by Washington, making the war in
Ukraine now a direct war between the U.S. and Russia.

Turkish-made Bayraktar drones have no combat effectiveness due to their
extreme vulnerability to air defense systems, Ukrainian official Sergey Pashinsky said in a mock interview with Russian pranksters Vovan and Lexus.
Pashinsky thought he was speaking to former US ambassador to Russia
Michael McFaul. During the call he apparently admitted that “there is
more PR and corruption in Bayraktar than combat use,” according to a
video published by the duo on their Telegram channel which appears to
have been recorded sometime earlier this month.
The politician, who heads the Association of Defense Enterprises of
Ukraine, went on to say that the Turkish drones, which Western and
Ukrainian media have hailed as a game changer on the battlefield in the
ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, are “first and
foremost a PR project.”
“I was personally against it, because they are extremely vulnerable to
air defense systems,” Pashinsky said, adding that Ukraine had a lot of Bayraktars before fighting broke out and that “they were all shot down
within a week.”
He further explained that the drone is “not a self-sufficient weapon” it cannot work by itself as it “gets shot down by air defense systems in a
flash and has no combat effectiveness at all.”

The official noted, however, that they can be used in tandem with
anti-radar missiles which have been supplied to Kiev by the US and that
“if not for the HIMARS and HARM systems, there would be no more
Bayraktars in Ukraine.”
Ukraine previously announced it intends to carry on with its plan to
open a Bayraktar manufacturing facility in collaboration with the
Ankara-based producer Baykar. That’s after Türkiye gave several drones
to Kiev earlier this year.
In another excerpt from Pashinsky’s interview with Vovan and Lexus
published last week, but apparently recorded before October 8, the
official also admitted that Kiev coordinates its military operations
with Washington and stated that “as soon as you tell me that the US
approves the destruction of the Crimean Bridge, things can move
forward,” adding that “I only need a verbal confirmation.”
