YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe US intelligence community has assessed that Russian President Vladimir Putin is readying for a drawn out war in Ukraine, with ambitions beyond the Donbas region, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines told the Senate on May 10.
Haines was testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday when she made her remarks.
“Russia’s failure to rapidly seize Kyiv and overwhelm Ukrainian forces has deprived Moscow of the quick military victory that it had originally expected would prevent the United States and NATO from being able to provide meaningful military aid to Ukraine,” Haines said.
Russia has since focused its military resources in the Donbas region of Eastern Ukraine, Haines told the Senate, but cautioned that Putin’s ambitions remained broader and long-term.
“We assess President Putin is preparing for a prolonged conflict in Ukraine during which he still intends to achieve goals beyond the Donbas,” Haines said.
