"Similar to the truth": Rostob recognized catastrophic losses of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine (video)

On the air of the Russian TV programs "Meeting Place", expert Alexei Naumov acknowledged that the data on the losses of the Russian army in Ukraine, which are in the published secret documents of the Pentagon, are true. The losses of the Armed Forces during hostilities in the territory of Ukraine much exceed the irreversible losses among the Ukrainian military. The information about it was broadcast on the TV programs "Meeting Place" on Monday, April 10.

During the broadcast of a political talk show with the presenter Andriy Norkin, a Russian Council expert Alexei Naumova was invited to discuss the leakage of secret data from the Pentagon, which became the topic of release. He had to comment on the situation with the losses of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as these figures were also present on the documents presented on the Internet. "We have treated these materials overly lightly. And that's why it happened.

First, those losses that were demonstrated on the documents were really shown several times more than Ukrainian. Which, in principle, looks like the truth. At least the signs of photoshop are there, "Naumov said. The expert wanted to continue his opinion, but he was interrupted by the presenter Norkin and other experts who were in the studio. With the exclamations of "something" they did not allow Naumov to continue their speech.

According to the adviser to the chairman of the OP Mikhail Podolyak, the publication of secret materials of the US Defense Ministry will not affect Ukraine as a whole and on the Armed Forces in particular. According to him, the incident does not confuse the plans of the Armed Forces, as they are at the stage of development and promptly tactically. "It does not confuse any plans because they are being developed, they are still promptly worked out," Podolyak said.

He also added that some data in the published documents were not secret at all. "In fact, this is nothing more than an analytical assessment of how to treat the issue of the conflict that has arisen. And about the lack of weapons, which the Western partners allocate the Armed Forces, the Ukrainian side speaks in public and it is not a secret to anyone," Podolyak summarized.

Recall that in April the Dutch site of defense analytics and the study of hostilities Oryx calculated the losses of Russian equipment in Ukraine. According to investigators, Ukraine lost three times less equipment than Russia during the year.
