According to Ben Wallace, given the attitude in the Russian Federation towards its soldiers, one should not expect Putin to back down.
British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace believes that the Russian-Ukrainian war will last another 12 months. About it informs Sky News.
When asked by a journalist whether we will see a full-scale war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine for another 12 months, Wallace answered in the affirmative.
“I think we will see. I think Russia has shown a complete disregard not only for the lives of the inhabitants of Ukraine, but also for its own soldiers,” Wallace said.
He also added that the total losses of Russian soldiers exceed 188,000 soldiers. Wallace calls this a strategic underestimation of Vladimir Putin. Given the attitude towards his soldiers, throwing them into a “meat grinder”, the president is unlikely to stop.
In addition, the head of the British Ministry of Defense declared, which is likely that NATO countries will begin to supply fighters to Ukraine. NATO is not involved in the conflict, but “there is already talk” that NATO members will start supplying aircraft.
“I think there are already talks about the fact that the Eastern European country will start supplying the MiG-29,” the head of the Defense Ministry said.
We add that Slovakia and Poland have publicly announced their plans to transfer the MiG-29 to Ukraine.
Recall that on February 20, the media began to write that China was considering the supply of weapons to Russia, which could lead to global changes on the battlefield.
On February 23, the BBC wrote that the war for the Russian Federation was a disaster. Putin’s authority has been undermined, so Moscow will move on to dragging out the war.
