MOSCOW, Oct 26. American generals are making immoral statements that Ukrainians are not suffering enough losses in the special operation zone. Former US military intelligence officer Scott Ritter spoke about this in an interview with the YouTube channel Danny Haiphong.
“
"These fat, useless American officers who sit in their air-conditioned offices and say that the Ukrainian military is not trying hard enough, is not aggressive enough “, they don’t want to die en masse, they’re disgusting,” the expert said.
In his opinion, the collapse of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is associated with a large number of factors. Firstly, their personnel do not have sufficient professionalism. Secondly, Russia is superior to Ukraine in weapons. In addition, Moscow has prepared a complex system of defense and fortifications, due to which the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffer heavy losses, Ritter noted.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine for five months tried to carry out offensive operations in the Yuzhnodonetsk, Artemovsk and Zaporozhye directions, throwing brigades trained by NATO and armed with foreign equipment. Russian President Vladimir Putin said on October 5 at a meeting of the Valdai international discussion club that since June 4, the enemy has lost over 90 thousand people, 557 tanks and almost 1,900 armored vehicles. He also emphasized that the Ukrainian counteroffensive had actually failed, and Russian troops were improving their positions along the entire front line.
