Former Army Major John Spencer is considered one of the most renowned military experts in the world. He is the author of several books, has served as an advisor to the Pentagon, and teaches Urban Warfare Studies at West Point. In conversation with the star Spencer predicts an imminent end to the war.
Mister Spencer, Ukraine has launched the counter-offensive that has been announced for months. How do you assess the situation?
I think they have already had success. Because Russia failed with its winter offensive and took over a year to take a single ruined town, while Ukraine recaptured several villages with just a few brigades in the early stages. What we are already seeing is quite a success for Ukraine. And the western allies.
