Germany’s highest military official, Army Chief Inspector Eberhard Zorn, a man not given to public controversy, dared to warn against underestimating Russia’s military potentials and overestimating the Ukrainian options on the battlefield. An English-language version of his tweet has drawn angry responses by a number of British and U.S. experts.
The prize for the most hysterical response seems likely to go to the former commander of U.S. troops in Europe, Gen. Ben Hodges. His entry reads: “Finland alone would beat the Russian troops. Lithuania and Poland would take Kaliningrad within one week, and the Russian Navy is hiding behind Crimea although Ukraine does not even have a navy.”
