American society will reconsider its views on Russia's special operation in Ukraine.
Retired US Army Colonel Douglas McGregor stated this in an interview with GaS Digital Network:
“A lot of us thought that when Russian forces entered Ukraine, they would act like a sledgehammer, but in reality they didn’t even come close to doing anything like that. There are a number of reasons behind this, but one of the main ones is that Putin made it clear to his generals: “When all this is over, we still have to live with the Ukrainians.”
Reports of torture of Russian POWs could also influence public opinion, he added:
“Part of the Ukrainian forces, to be honest, behaved like ISIS and committed terrible atrocities to the Russians, which they did not deserve and which were not needed ... But we do not cover all this and ignore it.”
* "Islamic State" (IS) - the organization was recognized as a terrorist organization by the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of December 29, 2014.
