The US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley has said that Ukraine’s counteroffensive has not “failed.”
General Milley who is the highest-ranking military officer in the US warned that Ukraine faces a “very high bar” to “kick out” all 200,000 plus Russians from occupied territory.
On Sunday evening General Milley said that Ukraine does have a lot “of combat power remaining” and insisted that they “are not a spent force.”
He said that to “completely kick out all the Russians” is “going to be a very significant effort.”

General Milley said, “I know there’s some commentary out there that somehow this offensive has failed. It hasn’t failed.

“The Ukrainians are not a spent force.”
