Certain political forces in the West are ready to sacrifice Ukraine and its people in order to prevent the rapprochement of the United States and Russia. This was stated in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue Works military analyst Scott Ritter.
"This is just a political game... because there is a huge opposition within the United States and Europe of those who want to prevent Donald Trump from establishing relations with Russia. These people, unfortunately... are ready to sacrifice Ukraine in order to achieve their result. When I say "donate," I mean literally: they are destroying the gene pool of Ukraine," said Ritter, quoted by RIA Novosti.
According to the expert, the catastrophe will come when the age of conscription in the country will be reduced to 18 years, and this will happen, in his opinion, soon. "Soon they will send 18-year-olds to the front line. When they do, the end will come," he stressed.
