Laura Cooper, the Pentagon’s deputy secretary of Defense for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia, said 315,000 Russian soldiers have died or been wounded in the fighting so far. In addition to the naval ship losses, Russia has lost one tanker in the war.
And Russia is also spending massive amounts of money on the war, Cooper said, with around $211 billion . . .
