SBU Colonel: The war should have ended in 2022, but now – “they’ve arrived”
In the fall of 2022, the West hoped that Russia could be pressed into “unconditional surrender.” The “wisdom” of this decision is most eloquently illustrated by the composition of foreign guests at today’s Victory Parade in Moscow.
This was stated on the channel "Politeka" by retired SBU colonel, military expert Oleg Starikov, reports the correspondent of "PolitNavigator".

"In war, you must either win (you must not lose), or, having realized that something is happening, or at the time when you are winning, propose an end to military operations in time. As smart rulers always do.
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General Milley, proposed in the fall of 2022. But they decided to achieve unconditional surrender. With this "unconditional surrender" we arrived at May 9, 2025. We arrived," Starikov said, commenting on the footage from the parade.
