Ukraine’s minister of defense tore apart Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war tactics, saying that his troops are failing because they’re still a “big Soviet army.”
Oleksii Reznikov discussed the topic in an interview with The Guardian published Thursday, saying that sheer numbers had proved less of an advantage than Russia expected.
He predicted that vast numbers of drafted Russians were being prepared for a new offensive in early 2023, but said his forces would be ready.
Reznikov cited Ukraine’s nimble, hybrid tactics as the reason it could match even a larger and better-funded military like Russia’s.
