https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/russia-lose-million-soldiers-to-achieve-ukraine-war-goals/General Sir Roland Walker said Moscow would take another five years to attain their minimum objectives in Ukraine.
The numbers of dead and wounded would top 1.5 million, he said in a speech at the Royal United Services Institute conference in London on Wednesday.
Russia has already lost 550,000 men, either killed, wounded or captured since it invaded, over two and a half years ago.
Sir Roland said that a long war produces "no winners," adding that "it is an utter devastation for both sides and lost generations."

Sir Roland said that taking those regions entirely would cause Russian casualties to skyrocket.
“Our Ukrainian partners are beginning to do this with great results now.”
