CIA Director says Putin 'has no sustainable political end game' in what will continue to be a 'fierc
CIA Director Bill Burns said Russian President Vladimir Putin has no political end game to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in the face of fierce resistance from Ukrainians.
Burns testified on Tuesday before the House Select Intelligence Committee on threats to national security. When asked by Rep. Adam Schiff how he foresaw the conflict in Ukraine ending, Burns said he wasn't sure.
"That's the core question," Burns responded. "I think Putin's assumptions have turned out to be profoundly flawed."
"He failed to see how he could sustain a puppet regime or a pro-Russian leadership that he tried to install in the face of what is a massive opposition from Ukrainian people," Burns said.
