The Russian president said it s obvious that Western supporters of the Kiev regime are clearly disappointed with the results of Ukrainian long-anticipated counteroffensive.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu earlier said that since the beginning of Ukraine s counteroffensive in early June, Russia has destroyed more than 26,000 Ukrainian soldiers, also obliterating over 1,200 enemy tanks.
In this week’s episode of the New Rules podcast, host Dimitri Simes Jr. speaks with former US Marine Intel officer and UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter about why the Ukrainian counteroffensive is turning into a “suicide mission”, NATO’s role in planning this debacle, and what the Ukraine conflict can teach us about the future of warfare.
