Colonel McGregor calls on Ukraine to make peace due to the losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[Regnum] Colonel and former adviser to the head of the Pentagon Douglas McGregor believes that the Kiev authorities should come to terms and make peace with Russia. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are rapidly losing strength. An American officer believes that the losses of the Ukrainian army have reached a critical level. He wrote about this on the social network X, admitting that “the Ukrainian phase of the war has come to an end” and peace is needed. “They are losing soldiers at a rate comparable to the losses of the Allied forces during the First World War on the Western Front. Every day in 1918 we lost an average of a thousand men a day,” McGregor wrote. As Regnum reported , the Russian military is carrying out preventive strikes on targets in the territory of the Kherson region controlled by the Kiev regime in order to prevent the Ukrainian Armed Forces from crossing the Dnieper. A Ukrainian victory in the combat zone is unlikely due to the proliferation of Russian kamikaze drones, says German journalist Julian Roepke. When developing weapons in Russia, the ability to destroy Western equipment is taken into account, said former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter. More from regnum.ru A captured Ukrainian Armed Forces fighter spoke about dozens of deserters in the ranks of the Ukrainian army A Ukrainian Armed Forces military officer who was captured in the Zaporozhye direction spoke about dozens of deserters due to the situation at the front and the lies of the commanders. “Morale is below average. There are suspicions (that the unit will die in battle), but they (the command) assure us, talk, and somehow they succeed,” RIA Novosti quotes him. According to him, the military remains, trusts the commanders, but “everything is quite the opposite” is happening. He added that the decision to desert is made by those who have already been in battle and are faced with the real picture of what is happening. “They didn’t say anything. They drank vodka for several days, then turned around, packed their things and went AWOL. There were enough of them. More than ten for sure. Maybe about 50,” said the prisoner. This comes from the realization that he believes that the bosses are lying, all their conversations are not true. “People think and understand that this is just a meat grinder,” the prisoner of war concluded. As Regnum reported , due to the failure of the attacks at Rabotino and Pyatikhatki, the Ukrainian military decided to surrender to Russian soldiers, since the capabilities of the transferred Western equipment were exaggerated. Since mid-July, about 10,000 Ukrainian military personnel decided to surrender and used the special open frequency 149.200 Volga. Only in the Rabotino area do Ukrainian Armed Forces fighters surrender in whole groups. In Ukraine, only those who are fit for military service are sent to military service. Men with clinically cured tuberculosis, viral hepatitis with minor dysfunction, asymptomatic HIV, and diseases of the endocrine system are subject to mobilization. Men with short-term manifestations of mental disorders and neurotic disorders will also be drafted into the army in Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin said on September 4 that the so-called “counter-offensive” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is not even a slippage, but a real failure. During the attempted counteroffensive, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost 71,000 people in three months, from June to September 2023, the head of state added.
