IndiaTheNews Exclusive: New twist in Russia-Ukraine War. Putin openly threatened Western countries by citing Adolf Hitler and Napoleon Bonaparte.

This week in IndiaTheNews News Network’s special program Shaurya Path, we wanted to know from Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi (Retd) that the Russia-Ukraine war recently completed two years. There is dullness on both sides, that is why people from other countries are now being brought in to fight. What does all this show? After all, how much longer will this war last? He said that despite major destruction in the last two years, both sides are not ready to back down. He noted that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed since the Russian invasion began. He said that there is no clear data from Russia’s side but its army has also suffered a lot of damage.

Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi (Retd) said that one thing is clear that Ukraine is no longer getting foreign help like before, which has affected its military capability and Russia is continuously moving forward. He said that Zelensky is constantly touring foreign countries to collect resources, but questions are being raised on how long he will be able to drag on this war by demanding money and weapons. He said that one more thing is that there has been a feeling of dullness in the armies on both sides and that is why people from other countries are being brought to fight. He said that China is once again trying to establish a ceasefire between the two sides but it does not seem easy because it will not leave the Ukrainian areas which Russia has occupied and will not accept it as Ukraine without taking back its areas. He said that the Ukrainian President has now started showing fear to the European countries that if Ukraine is occupied by Russia then the European countries will also not be safe.

Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi (Retd) said that on one hand Zelensky is asking for help from everyone, on the other hand Russian President Vladimir Putin seems full of confidence and is openly threatening Ukraine and all its allies. He said Russian President Vladimir Putin has told Western countries that there is a risk of nuclear war if they send troops to fight in Ukraine. Putin has warned that Moscow has the weapons to attack targets in the West. He said Putin had previously spoken about the dangers of direct conflict between NATO and Russia, but his latest nuclear warning was one of the clearest.

Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi Ji (Retd) said that while addressing Russian MPs and the country’s elite, 71-year-old Putin reiterated his allegation that Western countries were bent on weakening Russia. Putin said Western leaders do not understand how dangerous their interference in Russia’s own internal affairs can be. He began his nuclear warning with specific reference to French President Emmanuel Macron’s consideration of European NATO members sending ground troops to Ukraine. Putin said that Western countries should understand that we also have weapons that can hit targets in their territory. Putin said, doesn’t he understand this? Speaking ahead of presidential elections scheduled for March 15-17, Putin said he was certain to be re-elected for another six-year term. He also praised Russia’s huge modernized nuclear arsenal which is the largest in the world. He said a visibly angry Putin suggested Western politicians remember the fate of people like Nazi Germany’s Adolf Hitler and France’s Napoleon Bonaparte, who had unsuccessfully invaded Russia in the past.

Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi (Retd) said that apart from this, the possibility of former US President Donald Trump’s return to the White House and implementing his ‘America First’ policy could prove ‘fatal’ for Ukraine. Is. He said that US presidential elections are proposed for the end of this year. Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, is against any additional aid to Ukraine. He said Trump says any other aid should now be given as loans. He also announced his intention to end the war within 24 hours and stressed the need to quickly create an atmosphere of peace. He said that however, Trump’s rival in the race for the presidential nomination from the Republican Party, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, supports continuing aid to Ukraine without any conditions. He said that Vladimir Putin’s victory would lead to war in other countries of Europe, primarily the Baltic countries and Poland. He said that although Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed hope that if Trump is elected president in November, America will continue to provide aid to Ukraine and if this does not happen, the war-torn country may have to suffer fatal consequences. .

Brigadier Shri DS Tripathi (Retd) said that many factors will influence the dynamics of US assistance to Ukraine and its size in the future. America’s strategic priorities and its willingness to provide financial support will depend on whether the war is defined by its policymakers and the American public as solely a local or regional affair or as part of a global conflict. He said European countries, particularly Germany, France and Poland, are committed to continuing to support Ukraine and have agreed on the creation of a Ukrainian fund. He said that in the last six months, EU countries have left America behind in terms of aid to Ukraine. He said that as the war continues and Ukraine’s armed forces fail to make gains, the US will focus on strengthening NATO military power rather than funding its own defense capabilities and providing assistance to Ukraine.
