Russia is losing the war, said US President Donald Trump's special representative for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, APA reports.
"Trump asked me if Russia was winning the war. I told him Russia was not winning the war. If Putin had won, he would have been in Kiev. He would have been in Odessa, on the western bank of the Dnieper, and he would have changed the Ukrainian government. Russia is losing the war," Kellogg claimed.
The US President's special representative also spoke about nuclear weapons.
"This is not the Russia I knew during the Cold War, the Soviet Union. This is a different Russia. They talk big, but if I were Putin, I would be worried. Putin sometimes threatens to use nuclear weapons. The United States, Great Britain and France also have nuclear weapons. We discussed this in the Oval Office. They talked about the strength of the Russian army. I said that we will defeat the Russians. The Russian army is not as strong as Putin says. Therefore, the Ukrainian army should be praised. I think no one should be afraid of the Russian army. I don't think they have the potential to march on Berlin or anywhere else," Kellogg noted.

Kellogg should stick to making corn flakes. He is DS.
I have to agree. Russia is a paper tiger.
Two weeks left for Putin to conquer Donetsk…
Russian leader Vladimir Putin reportedly told President Trump his forces could conquer the long-sought-after Donetsk region by October if Ukraine didn’t give up the land as part of a peace deal
Four things obvious:
1. Putin ‘lives’ in the 1990s and sees the ‘glorious’ heartland surviving on...even if industry, commerce, banking are teetering.
2. There is plan ‘B’. Russia has to win in some fashion.
3. Most economists question the 2021 Russian census. The gov’t position was 147-million ‘existed’. If the numbers were off by 10 to 20 percent....the twice a year drafts can only make sense if you had incoming North Korean conscripts hired-up.
4. I noticed last week...some Russian gas-stations are not getting normal deliveries. You pull in...limit to what you can get. It would have a dismal effect if they can’t get back to a regular schedule.
How long has the West been saying this?
So if Russia doesn’t take Kiev, doesn’t take Odessa, doesn’t take everything east of the west bank of the Dnieper, and doesn’t get regime change in Ukraine, Russia has lost he war? Oooooooookay.
Pretty soon Putin will have been fighting Ukraine longer than Stalin fought Germany.
So?
Not a good look for Putin and Russia.
Sounds as if Kellogg was asked by Trump to troll Putin.
Moreover, in recent months, Ukraine has used long range drones and special forces raids to target Russia's crucial oil and gas sector. Along with inadequate maintenance, investment, and personnel, the result has been a decline in output that pits domestic needs against the fuel exports that earn Russia essential hard currency.
Wars eventually end, often from exhaustion. And Russia is looking more and more exhausted.
I don’t know who put Kellogg in place as Trump’s special advisor to Ukraine…but they are either blindly incompetent or deliberately sabotaging him.
Speaking the truth about Putin’s botched invasion isn’t sabotage.
Has Ukraine taken back any of the land they have lost?
“Russia is losing war”
Sure is taking them a long time to do so.
Russia has kost the war already. The economic destruction will take 50 years to remedy, if ever.
The smartest take. Art of the Deal.
New Bloomberg data showing Russia's total territorial gains since January 2024 amount to 1.05% of Ukraine.
In this time, Russia lost over 700,000 troops.
So Ukraine is winning? Sure Jan.
