Ukrainian war
Military historians interviewed by the United States CNN (CNN) said that Putin had made similar errors in Ukraine in at least three aspects.This includes: logistics planning, wanton killing and imitation Hitler's argument.
(Washington News) Russian President Putin often mentioned the history of the Soviet Union defeating Nazi Germany during World War II and defended Russia's invasion of Ukraine.However, military historians believe that Putin is committing the same mistakes when the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941.
Military historians interviewed by the United States CNN (CNN) said that Putin made a mistake similar to the Nazi German Head Heads Hitler at least in three aspects.
First of all, the logistics planning is poor and did not provide enough food, fuel and equipment for the Russian army.It is reported that the Russian army robbed banks and supermarkets, tank fuel was exhausted, and soldiers used unconventional military communication methods such as smartphones, which led to at least seven Russian generals in Ukraine.
Johnson, a professor of military history of the Virgin University of Indiana, said: "Evidence shows that Putin believes that he can quickly win through the deployment of special forces and airborne troops. Therefore, when the Russian army was forced to participate in a more traditional war, basically basicallyWhen most of the Russian troops involved in the Ukrainian border, they were not prepared for logistics. "
The bad logistics is also a key factor in the defeat of the Nazi Germany.The Germans failed to establish a sufficient supply line for the vast regions of the Soviet Union and the rugged terrain, so that the German tank fuel was exhausted.When the cold winter of Russia came, the German soldiers were forced to wear summer military uniforms, and about 250,000 Germans frostbite or frozen to death in that winter.
Secondly, the support of civilians is wanting to lose the support of potential allies and make Ukraine more united.
Putin has potential ally in Ukraine.Russia and Ukraine are the Slavic countries with religious and cultural connections. Many Ukrainians have Russian relatives and speak Russian.Historically, the loyalty to Russia in the Wudong region is higher.However, Putin's atrocities of civilians are uniting Ukraine in an unprecedented way.
Hitler also has many potential allies in the Soviet Union.Many Soviets despise and are afraid of Stalin, because Stalin kills political opponents, executes military leaders, and persecutes Soviet citizens.
During the famine period, he starved about 4 million Ukrainians.This is why some Soviets first welcomed Hitler and gave some Germans for Christmas gifts.
However, Hitler's cruelty of civilians soon strengthened the determination of the Soviets.
Johnson said that Stalin was so annoying that about 1 million Soviets served in the German army, but Hitler's atrocities destroyed any opportunities to win the support of Soviet sympathy and weakened the Soviet resistance.
Putin follows Hitler's justification
The third error made by Putin was to defend the war in Hitler -style language, claiming that Ukraine would "de -Nazi", but in fact Ukrainian President Zelei SkyLost loved ones.
Skinde, an authoritative person in the History and Holocaust of Central Europe, said that Putin's defense is the variant of Hitler's lies -this is a Nazi propaganda technique, thinking that a political leader repeated enough lies, peopleWill eventually believe it.
Stanard pointed out that Putin lied that Ukraine was ruled by the Nazis and was mocking the survivors of the Holocaust.
This may be counterproductive, because in a country where many citizen ancestors were killed in the massacre, they defended the war with such historical tragedies, which would only make some Ukrainians firmly defend their homes.
Maybe this is why some Ukrainians no longer call Putin President of Russia, but call him "New Hitler".
