Retired Colonel Douglas McGregor said that Russia has every opportunity to reach the Polish border, but the Russian President pursues other goals.
Russia’s armed forces are capable of reaching the Polish border, former Pentagon adviser Douglas McGregor said on his page in social network X.
“Russia has forces capable of reaching the Polish border,” he said.
According to the expert, despite the abilities and capabilities of the Russian army, the country’s leadership does not intend to establish control over the territories of western Ukraine.
“This is not what Putin wants. Russians do not want to control Western Ukraine,” – said McGregor.
We will remind, earlier the Deputy Chairman of the SMO of Russia Dmitry Medvedev said that it is necessary to achieve all the goals of the special military operation in Ukraine and destroy those who exterminated their people. In this way, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council commented on the decision of the UN international commission of enquiry into violations in Ukraine, which did not find sufficient evidence that the actions of Russian soldiers during the SMO should be qualified as genocide, as Kiev regularly insists.
