Ukraine Is not Able to Retake Crimea Soon According to Pentagon

 In a classified briefing from earlier this month, four senior Defense Department officials informed the House Armed Services Committee that Ukrainian forces are unlikely to retake Crimea from Russia.

POLITICO reported that this bleak assessment for Ukraine was spelled out by three individuals who possess knowledge of the material featured in the February 2 briefing.

Based on the material presented, the Pentagon doesn`t see Ukraine taking back Crimea anytime soon.

However, the main point about Ukraine not being able to retake Crimea with ease remained.

The briefers not-so optimistic view is similar to that of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, who expressed similar sentiments on January 20 during a meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group in Germany.

Mark Milley, the Joint Chiefs chair, has alluded to in recent weeks.

“I still maintain that for this year it would be very, very difficult to militarily eject the Russian forces from all –– every inch of Ukraine and occupied –– or Russian-occupied Ukraine,” Milley stated.

Doesn`t mean it won`t happen, but it`d be very, very difficult.

Copious amounts of military aid and NATO boots on the grounds will be the only way for this goal to be realized, which would likely result in a potential nuclear exchange.

There will obviously be stronger calls for military aid to Ukraine as Russia starts making more progress in eastern Ukraine.

"On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease."
