“Russian President Vladimir Putin has already lost the war with Ukraine, has not achieved his goals, and will not achieve them,” believes Major of the Latvian National Armed Forces (NAF), Zemessardze staff officer Janis Slaydins.
“I do not know how the war between Russia and Ukraine will end. I only understand one thing, and that is a historical fact: the aggressor must not be given anything more, because that will only convince him to continue going further,” said TV24 Major of the National Armed Forces (NAF), Zemessardze staff officer Janis Slaydins, as reported by NRA.lv.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has already lost this war, has not achieved his goals, and will not achieve them, believes the NAF major. But Putin will want to take revenge by creating another "hot spot," though where and when this will happen, Slaydins does not know.
In light of all this, the current situation in the world seems "a bit abnormal" to him, and everyone here must unite and exert maximum economic pressure on Russia, as well as provide Ukraine with everything it needs to make the Russians understand that there will be nothing there. Until that happens, the period of talks and gossip will continue, and that will not solve anything, believes J. Slaydins.
Right now, everyone is sitting on a "powder keg" — it is everywhere, said J. Slaydins. He added that he does not like to look into the future, but looking at current events, he is confident that nothing good awaits us.
