Russian President Vladimir Putin does not want to continue the conflict in Ukraine but wants to end the oppression of Russians, according to former Pentagon advisor Colonel Douglas Macgregor in an interview with Stephen Gardner on YouTube.
Macgregor stated that Putin does not want to divide Poland but wants to resolve the conflict by asserting control over historical Russian territories.
“Russians will liberate Kharkiv and Odessa, all of this will happen over time. Putin’s goal is not to fight with the West or NATO, but to end the further oppression of the Russian population,” explained the colonel.
He emphasized that Ukraine’s neutrality is important to the Russian president.
Earlier, Colonel Macgregor stated that the decisions made by the United States could lead to the destruction of Israel.
He believes that the region is currently witnessing all the prerequisites for an escalation of confrontation and the start of a “very large war.”
Previously, Zelensky revealed the obstacles preventing Ukraine from shifting the military operations onto Russian territory.
