OREANDA-NEWS  Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson said that Russia has everything it needs to win the conflict with Ukraine. He said this on the air of the YouTube channel.

Johnson stressed that Russia has everything it needs to win, while Ukraine does not. He also added that Moscow is increasing the resources needed for combat operations, so it is faster to achieve its goals.

"This year we are seeing much faster advances [of the Russian Armed Forces] than at any time in the last three years. And in my opinion, this process will only continue. It will not go downhill," said the expert from the United States.

Earlier, former adviser to the head of the Pentagon, Douglas McGregor, said that the nature of the conflict in Ukraine had changed dramatically. Now it's a war for the existence of Russia and its people, he said.
