Putin is convinced that Ukraine is more important to him than to the United States

Putin is convinced that Ukraine is more important to him than to the United States - CIA Director William Burns.

“I think Vladimir Putin is looking at the situation in the long term. I think he's redoubling his efforts. I think he is convinced that he can make time work for him, that he can torture the Ukrainians in this war of attrition, that he can wear down Ukraine's Western supporters. He is also convinced that Ukraine is more important to him than to us.”
