There was an opportunity to finish the war. General Goodges - About the Counter -Offset in the South and the feasibility for the United States to complete the war this year

Everything they could have done: General Ben Gogess, the US Land Emergency Emergency in Europe, assures that there is almost no way to strengthen the war against Ukraine in the arsenal of Russia, and the nuclear blow is unlikely today. (Photo: AP/Mindaugas Kulbis) General Ben Govedes states the loss of the Russian army of morale and declares the need to completely deprive Russia of combat capability so that it can no longer threaten either Ukraine or other neighbors.

General Ben Gogess, the US Army Equester in Europe, and now one of the most authoritative military experts, remains an unchanged optimist in the Victory of Ukraine in Russia.

Video of the day he states the loss of opportunities for the Russian army to systematically break the situation in the battlefield in his favor, assures that in the period of future autumn-winter the Ukrainian army has every chance to reach on the verge of its territories as of February 23, however, it notes that it is possible It will only be with the systematic support of the Western countries if they increase the supply of weapons to Ukraine and give the Ukrainian army everything it needs.

He speaks about it and more in an interview with HB. - Do you say that Russian troops have reached the culmination in this war, what exactly is it? What does this mean in the terms of Russian weapons, opportunities for the Russian army to successfully advance and defend themselves? - climax - a term that was first described [by the nineteenth -century Prussian military theorist] by Karl von Clausewica as a point at which the attacking side loses the ability to attack.

Due to the overall loss of the army, the lack of resources, because the opponent is too cool or their own soldiers lose their fighting spirit. This concept is important because the protected party is always important to understand whether the enemy has reached the culmination. In my opinion, the Russians reached the climax a few weeks ago.

Due to the fact that their logistics is becoming more and more unreliable, the commanders of the army do not have a concerted strategy and lose their morale, and soldiers do not have a special desire to fight. And, of course, Ukrainian defenders operate professionally, using weapons to break the enemy's logistics chains very well. Therefore, I am sure that the Russians in this war have reached the climax.

- In such circumstances, what is the potential of escalation of conflict from Russia? What potential actions of Russia are forcing the US to be so cautious about giving Ukraine weapons with greater range? - Today, the only way that Russia can escalate this conflict is the use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine, which looks unlikely. They understand that such a step will inevitably take steps back from the US or even the United Kingdom, and this is not exactly what Russians would like.

And I also think that the oligarchs who help Putin fix his power, too, are not delighted with such a decision, because the actions of the United States and the UK will be very rigid. In addition, I think Putin is extremely cynical and unprincipled, but he is not crazy, so I consider such a development is unlikely.

But the US administration and some other countries, even the likelihood of nuclear impact, are very careful, and maybe this time does not dare to supply Ukraine in full for so long, for example, the same atacams. They need Ukraine in this war to strike for targets in the Russian Federation. Everyone is still worried that this is somehow angry and will lead to unpredictable consequences, but this is a mistake. All that could, Russia has already demonstrated.

The US government has done a very good job, but it must be continued. There is another way that Russia can try to aggravate the situation. This will happen if the event is unable to, or does not want to maintain the sanction pressure on Russia, which already exists.

If any contract for reducing combat activity or operational pause on the front is also signed-all this will allow Russia to restore part of its military potential, to correct already made mistakes, and as a result, all this will turn into a long and even more difficult war for Ukraine and new attacks . If Ukraine continues to fight, if the war is not put on a pause and the sanction boots will continue to press on the throat of Russia, this will not happen.
