TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): Where do you think this conflict stands tonight?
DOUGLAS MACGREGOR (GUEST): Well, the Ukrainians are being crushed. Even The Washington Post and The New York Times are now finally beginning to print the truth. Their casualties are horrific. We have effectively seen the Russians destroy three separate armies built by the Ukrainians. And everyone is beginning to wonder what's really happening.
The truth is coming out that this war was not started by Russia. That Russia begged us not to try and drag Ukraine into NATO. We ignored Russia. And Russia made it very clear that they were going to defend their national interest. All they wanted was neutrality for Ukraine.
