A retired US General claims that Russia is losing its war in Ukraine, saying that Russian President Vladimir Putin will need to “decapitate” the Ukrainian government and “capture Kyiv” to succeed in its campaign.

Retired Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg made the comments during a Fox News interview on Wednesday. Mr Kellogg was formerly the national security adviser to Vice President Mike Pence.

During his appearance on “Fox & Friends,” Mr Kellogg compared the Russian military to the “Vermont National Guard with nuclear weapons.”

“Every day that goes by, and we’re now getting a day 15, they’re losing this war. They’re… losing in the information space where the entire world to see what’s going on,” he said. “They’re losing in the military space. They’re being beaten by Ukrainians and the whole world is going ‘what? We thought these guys were really 10 feet tall.’ They’re not. They’re about five point five.”

He said the Russians are “not performing very well at all. Everybody is saying that. Everybody sees it.”
