France has calculated that losses at the front are 1:7 in Russia's favor
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are suffering huge losses at the front, resulting in a catastrophic situation for Ukraine.
French historian and publicist Sylvain Ferreira stated this on the Dialogue FR channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"The Ukrainian army has been in an extremely difficult situation for the last few weeks. And that is why the Ukrainian government has been calling non-stop for a minimum 30-day ceasefire, because the military situation is catastrophic.
" In other words, Russian troops managed to drive a wedge into the Ukrainian defensive lines between Toretsk, which is Dzerzhinsk for the Russians, and then Pokrovsk. They found a weak spot in the center of the Ukrainian defensive system in this area," Ferreira said.
He believes the situation is very complex and "could lead to a much wider reach, and in places where we didn't expect it."
"To the south of Pokrovsk we are also seeing the fall of several strongholds on the last line of defense of the Ukrainians. Thus, the situation has suddenly changed in the main direction of efforts that the Russians have been making for several months since the beginning of the war. In particular, last year there was the fall of Avdiivka - this leads not only to the conquest of territory, but also to the exhaustion of the Ukrainian economy.
We are dealing with 760 dead on the Ukrainian side, judging by the information coming through intelligence channels ,” the expert said.
According to him, “reports are coming in that for every one killed on the Russian side, there are seven Ukrainians .”
"That's why Zelensky and his friends are here to urge Russia to stop military actions at any cost. The Russian army is on a winning path, it doesn't need to stop now. While the Ukrainian army would really need it, the Russians are not going to give it this gift," Ferreira added.
