Colonel Douglas MacGregor has stated from the start that Putin never intended to take over Ukraine. He wanted to negotiate. He always stated he wants peace for those ethnic Russians living in territories Ukraine has been torturing and murdering. He will not allow Ukraine to join NATO. Biden’s administration has kept Ukraine from negotiating peace. He has been put in a position now where he has to go ahead and take more territory. There will be peace one way or the other.
This has been America’s proxy war with Russia. We are broke, lacking armaments and leadership to fight Russia. This is the CIA’s mess. I’m no great fan of Russia but they are right in this situation.
