NATO Secretary General: Russia loses a number of soldiers per month similar to what the US lost in the 14 years of the Vietnam War.
According to Mark Ruta, in recent months the Russian army has lost more than 40 thousand people killed and seriously wounded every month. In October, the losses may have exceeded 50 thousand.
For comparison: during the 14 years of the Vietnam War, the US lost approximately 56,000 dead military personnel.
The NATO Secretary General noted that Russia is increasing its hybrid attacks on European countries. In the arsenal of the Russian intelligence services are arson, provocations using drones and cyber attacks.
Ruta stated that Moscow is trying to weaken support for Ukraine, but instead NATO will increase aid to Kiev.
