He was trending on Twitter for several hours with many videos and interviews claiming that the Russians left occupied territories to prevent large civilian death by Ukrainian forces.
He also says Ukraine has lost close to 80 000 soldiers and Russian losses are around 20k.
Another claim he keeps repeating is that most videos of Russian losses are actually Ukrainian equipment that were marked with Z for propaganda and NATO is directly in charge of the military operations in Ukraine right now.
Here are some of his quotes:
SCOTT RITTER: Why Russia Will Still Win, Despite Ukraine’s Gains "Russia is no longer fighting a Ukrainian army equipped by NATO, but a NATO army manned by Ukrainians" I call b.s.. There are NATO and yankee terrorists in Ukraine as we have seen.
...
...
"For Ukraine, the huge losses suffered by their own forces, combined with the limited damage inflicted on Russia means the Kharkov offensive is, at best, a Pyrrhic victory...Russia is winning, and will win, the conflict in Ukraine."
