Original Note:
MacGregor has made many false claims about Ukraine since Russia’s invasion. He is a frequent guest on Russian state TV, RT. There is no evidence of 600,000 Ukrainian losses. Russian losses are known to be higher than Ukraine’s due to their “meat grinder” tactics. https://www.polygraph.info/a/fact-check-how-russia-uses-retired-us-colonel-s-ukraine-misinformation-for-domestic-propaganda-/6972765.html https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/douglas-macgregor-fox-news-tucker-carlson-russia-ukraine-1318143/ https://www.reuters.com/world/us-intelligence-assesses-ukraine-war-has-cost-russia-315000-casualties-source-2023-12-12/ https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-losing-1000-soldiers-a-day-against-ukraine-report-war-2024-6?amp
