Former Pentagon adviser American Colonel Douglas McGregor said the conflict in Ukraine undermined and perhaps even destroyed US national power. He wrote an article for American Conservative.
According to him, many officials under US President Joe Biden are proposing to take “reckless actions” in Ukraine, which leads to a crisis of American confidence in its own officials.
At the same time, according to McGregor, Russia is better prepared for military operations in Ukraine than Western countries. The colonel said Russia received “support for its cause” from countries in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and South Asia.
“The fact that Western economic sanctions have damaged the US and European economies, making the Russian ruble one of the strongest currencies in the international system, has hardly strengthened Washington’s global position,” McGregor wrote.
Former US President Joe Biden simplified A procedure for expanding and accelerating domestic production of weapons and equipment critical to national defense.
