“According to the modeling that we have done very carefully with them, the Ukrainians are in a good position,” said the head of the United States European Command, General Christopher Cavoli, adding that the US had worked with them on a possible surprise attack.
Cavoli also said that Russia’s ground forces are larger today “than they were at the beginning of the conflict,” despite suffering numerous losses in its war against Ukraine, according to CNN.
Apart from its ground forces, Russia has a number of options at its disposal, he said.
The air force “lost very little; they lost 80 planes,” he said. “They still have 1,000 fighter jets and fighter bombers.”
“So they’re still using all this conventional power, too, and mixing it all together,” Cavoli said.
