Interview to Rossiiskaya Gazeta today.
Translation: It was important for Westerners to promote the topic of the upcoming Ukrainian counteroffensive in the global information space. The obviously overestimated importance attached to it is a kind of element of a psychic attack before a fight. In addition, the constant exaggeration of this topic allowed the Euro-Atlantic totalitarian liberal elite to justify the supply of weapons to Kyiv and ensure the unity of the NATO countries, many of which are already pretty tired of Ukraine and its president. At the same time, behind the scenes, many Western military analysts express serious doubts about the success of the Ukrainian adventure. Without going into details, I will say that the tasks announced by the Kiev regime are assessed as unattainable. The West, which is directly involved in the Ukrainian conflict, is well aware of the real capabilities and potential of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including in terms of the counteroffensive. Authoritative representatives of the American and European intelligence services and military departments do not rule out that the counteroffensive could lead to directly opposite results. The death of a significant number of NATO-trained military personnel and the destruction of equipment will undermine the combat capability of the Ukrainian army. This, in turn, will negatively affect the sustainability of the Zelensky regime. According to a number of Western assessments, the Ukrainian statehood itself may ultimately be under threat.
Naryshkin, being a chief spy of Russia is very measured in his statement, which is a feature of Russia's national security apparatus top officials. But West's assessments Naryshkin is talking about are absolutely irrelevant for the astonishing scale of slaughter of NATO proxies to which no person in Washington in decision making circles was ready for from the start of SMO. The issue is systemic and I cannot emphasize enough a dismay with which I react now to a recognition of a stunning, much worse than I assumed even two years ago, scale of incompetence of Western militaries who discredited themselves not just through amateur-level planning abilities, or lack thereof, but getting involved directly into what amounts to a war crime by throwing Ukie cannon fodder to be slaughtered on the scale NO US or NATO general ever saw or can comprehend. The whole world sees it now.
