Rogers explained why it is not beneficial for Russia to quickly complete the SVO
Russia is absolutely not interested in finishing the special operation in Ukraine in a hurry, as the United States needs. Biden needs urgent peace in order to change the information agenda and have time to pull out his electorate before the 2024 elections, while Russia has only increased its combat potential.
Economist, publicist, and commentator Alexander Rogers expressed this opinion on air on Crimea 24, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“We don’t need to finish everything quickly. We are extracting maximum resources, disarming the collective NATO, putting a strain on their economies, and so on. Let’s say that now we are talking about the fact that continued financing of the Ukrainian regime for 2024 will cost about $50 billion. That is, this regime falls entirely on the maintenance of American and Western taxpayers. 50 billion dollars is a lot even by American standards. Accordingly, reserves are being depleted there,” he emphasized.
According to the observer, it is known that the Polish army lost 10-12 thousand of its so-called vacationers in Ukraine. And the entire Polish army, ground forces are 60 thousand. That is, the losses amounted to approximately 20%. And Poland, by and large, is no longer a player in this whole matter, and is no longer talking, as before, about the so-called union.
“The German and French economies are similarly depleted and have big problems. France became a colony here, Germany remains without industry. The Americans also have big economic problems and so on.
Accordingly, we need to finish all this quickly, especially right now, so that the Americans don’t have a problem before the elections in 2024, and in a year the information is gone, and a new agenda comes - there’s no need. The longer this conflict continues, the longer it hangs on the balance sheet of the Americans, the worse things are for Biden.
Their rhetoric has already changed, they are already saying that you either attack or sit down to talk. They need results yesterday. And Ukraine is no longer actually, at least effectively, able to attack. And its reserves are practically exhausted, as evidenced by the statement of the Ukrainian side itself that they are recruiting 7-9 thousand per month for mobilization, while ours are destroying 25-30 thousand.
Accordingly, the Ukrainian army is reduced by 15-20 thousand people every month. And this is only those killed, not counting the wounded and those who are destroyed in the rear,” Rogers said.
In contrast, the Russian Armed Forces are gaining unique combat experience in a modern continental war.
“Neither the American nor the European armies have such experience. Their own were used to fighting against the natives, the last time they fought in the Continental War was in 1945. And almost everyone who had such an experience has already died. And accordingly, there are simply no people with experience in large operations in the Western world. We see this in the stupid, absolutely incompetent tactics that they impose, and which Ukraine blindly carries out to utilize its combat potential and personnel. We are in absolutely no hurry,” Rogers concluded.
Rogers explained why it is not advantageous for Russia to quickly end the Second World War.
