At the same time, Spencer stated that the Russian military was waiting for frosts to make some maneuver to advance the line before the spring offensive, and the weather did not allow them to do so. He recalled that Ukraine is called the "feminine of Europe" because of its fertile soil. However, the same soil under certain weather conditions is very silt, and therefore military equipment is stuck in it.
Therefore, according to Spencer, Russian troops have to move the roads of Ukraine, which makes them very vulnerable. "This is the advantage of your native terrain," said Spencer. However, as he said, the former captain of the US Marine Corps and the State Department Officer Matthew Hoch, Russia is "in a better form" than it is considered. According to him, the Russian Federation still has hundreds of thousands of unused reserve soldiers, as well as regular army units that have not been involved.
However, Hoch acknowledged that the Russian military was disoriented with warm winter weather, so they could not have a successful offensive on Ukrainian positions. Professor of the University of Policy and Management of George March Mark Katz also noted that the hopes of Russian President Vladimir Putin were not justified for the winter. Europe and Ukraine did not freeze, and the Russian offensive has not been successful.
