The Russian government has been slammed for its war in Ukraine by former members of the Kremlin

Russia’s mainstream media outlets offer a view of the Ukraine war that is unlike anything seen from the outside world.

Firstly, they don’t even call it a war – instead they call it a special military operation.

Now, three months into a war, the Russian government has come under fire, copping criticism in is a very rare occurrence on live television within the country.

A former senior Russian officer has warned on state television that the situation will get worse, and called for it to end.

“Let’s not drink ‘information tranquilizers,’ because sometimes information is spread about some moral or psychological breakdown of Ukraine’s armed forces, as if they are nearing a crisis of morale or a fracture,”

retired Col. Mikhail Khodarenok said on Monday’s edition of Rossiya One’s 60 Minutes show.

“None of this is close to reality.”

He openly criticised his country’s actions in Ukraine, and admitted that Russia knows the entire world is against it.

His comments are expected to Vladimir Putin as it directly contradicts with his objectives.

The Former Government Official did receive some pushback from the show’s presenter a short time after those comments.
