On Russian TV
Josh Marshall offers commentary on this clip from Russian TV:
Fascinating clip. Russian mil expert goes a rogue on Russian TV. States fairly clearly grim military situation for Russia. Other panelists argue with him. But the best part is when says that even Rand Paul won’t be able to save them. (Not by name but says the single senator blocking the flow of arms to Ukraine won’t be able to hold out forever.)
Full quote: “The whole issue is to what extent they’re able to supply this army with modern weapons … On their own of course they wouldn’t have done anything …But considering that the Lend-Lease program is about to start functioning and the resistance of a single senator will be overcome quite quickly.”
