The US Doctrine that Helped Ukraine Survive the Russian Invasion

Ukraine was invaded by Russia at the end of February, and its survival rested on a doctrine that was created by the US Special Operations Forces specifically for countries facing a large-scale invasion by a vastly superior force. , the goal being to resist their attacks.

Ukraine has brilliantly managed to resist the attacks that have come so far from Russia in all the areas where it has been constantly hit by the Russian army, and now it is trying to launch even counter-offensives to liberate part of the territories that the Russians managed to occupy them quickly in the first part of the invasion.

"Ukraine uses the doctrine of resistance developed by the US to deter Russia. Ukrainian forces have successfully used a method of resistance fighting developed by US special operations forces, US and European officials told CNN.

The resistance operation concept, known as the ROC doctrine, was developed in 2013 to provide a blueprint for small counties to effectively resist and confront a larger invading neighbor.”
