Why Russia’s Military Collapse is Closer Than You Think

Russia says it is winning. However, Navy SEAL Squadron Commander Chuck Pfarrer says that Russia’s defeat is nearing.

Pfarrer joins a choir of military experts who are painting a starkly different picture of what may come next for Russia in Ukraine as heavy losses, strategic failures, and logistical chaos plague Russian forces, contradicting Moscow’s optimistic narratives. Analysts warn that Russia is barreling toward an unrecoverable defeat.

Pfarrer, a veteran military analyst and Kyiv Post Special Correspondent, sharply criticizes Russia’s faltering military strategy. Drawing on decades of experience advising US national security agencies, Pfarrer details why Russia’s position grows increasingly untenable, emphasizing critical tactical blunders that are weakening its combat capabilities.

The former US Navy officer and counterterrorism expert, is widely recognized for his authoritative commentary featured on CNN, ABC, MSNBC, Fox, CSPAN, NPR, and in The New York Times. His deep expertise in gray-zone warfare and counter-WMD operations lends unique weight to his assessment – one that spells trouble for Russia’s ambitions in Ukraine.
