U.S. Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said more than 100,000 Russian soldiers have been killed and wounded in the Russian-Ukraine war since the start of the attack on Ukraine, and also said that losses in the ranks of the Ukrainian forces could be the same. .
A senior US military official also expressed hope for negotiations to end the war, as a military victory is impossible for either Russia or Ukraine, as he put it. “There must be mutual recognition that a military victory can hardly be achieved, strictly speaking, by military means,” he added.
Therefore, it is necessary to go in other ways.” The general emphasized the following, that there is “opportunity for negotiations.”
The figures mentioned by General Milley, which cannot be verified by independent sources, are the most accurate Washington has provided so far.
