WORLD, Oct. 03 (YPA) – Former adviser to US Defense Secretary Colonel Douglas Macgregor confirmed that Russia has prepared hundreds of military formations in eastern Ukraine, and is preparing for a large-scale attack on Ukraine.
Speaking on the Judging Freedom YouTube channel, he said: “There is bad news for the United States that Russia has prepared hundreds of new military formations in eastern Ukraine and that means preparations are underway for a large-scale offensive.”
He added that the Russian military had adopted a defensive stance for several months and was now ready to launch its attack on the West.
“Nothing can stop them, so why don’t they attack? Of course, when commenting on this, Officials in the US administration will say that the Russians will not do so, but this is ridiculous nonsense. Ukrainians die like flies and every time they raise their heads they are killed. The Russians are definitely ready to attack.”
Earlier, the Kremlin stressed that Moscow’s absolute priority is to achieve the goals of the military operation, and at the moment this can only be achieved through military means.
