 General Shamanov was even more pessimistic, as he grimly anticipated that
it would take the “re-education” of at least two generations of Ukrainians
before they would welcome or tolerate Russia’s dominance. He also noted
that Russia’s one-million-man armed forces aren’t enough to meet such a
challenge, calling for massive increases to the country’s military might.
Shamalov concluded: “Today, it can be clearly predicted that we will have
to remain in Ukraine for 30-40 years.”
