MOSCOW, September 30 – RIA Novosti. Ukrainians can either die in the conflict or agree to save what is left of their country, retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis said on his YouTube channel.
“The Europeans must understand, the White House must understand, Zelensky must understand that they cannot win the conflict with Russia. <…> The Russians cannot be stopped. All that the Ukrainians can do is either die or through negotiations save what is left of their country,” he noted.
According to Davis, Russia is causing irreparable damage to the enemy.
“The Russians are methodically destroying <…> everything that allows Ukraine to conduct and support military operations. <…> And the situation continues to worsen. And at the same time during offensives <…> Russia destroys parts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There is little written about this in the Western media, <…> but Ukraine continues to lose military personnel, and there is simply no one to replace them. So for the Ukrainian side these are pure losses,” the analyst emphasized.
According to the Ministry of Defense, over the past 24 hours, Russian troops have liberated the settlements of Veseloye Pole in the DPR and Kreidyanka in the Kharkov region. At the same time, they defeated energy facilities, UAV production workshops, ammunition and fuel depots, as well as temporary deployment points of Ukrainian armed forces and foreign mercenaries in 142 regions.
The enemy lost up to 1,410 troops and 15 armored vehicles.
