Russia's losses in full-scale invasion of Ukraine

Yesterday, on December 9, Pentagon Secretary Lloyd Austin, during the Ronald Reagan National Security Forum, said that since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia has lost at least 700,000 troops and spent more than $200 billion.

As explained by Yurii Fedorenko, commander of the Achilles battalion of the 92nd Separate Assault Brigade named after Otaman Sirko, Russia's losses are the largest for the entire period of the war against Ukraine. This is because Vladimir Putin wants to seize as much Ukrainian territory as possible before the inauguration of the 47th President of the United States of America, Donald Trump.
