“Putin will not be able to achieve his political goals in Ukraine”
The Atlantic Council’s Doug Klain says Russian President Vladimir Putin will not be able to win Ukraine, despite his ongoing aggression in the region
Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine has now entered week three, but Russian forces could soon exhaust their ability to fight in the country as sanctions begin to hurt the Kremlin – and as Kyiv resists to back down.
Vladimir Putin wants to take Ukraine and strip the country of its independence, the Atlantic Council’s Doug Klain told ticker NEWS.
The Kremlin, maintaining its aggression and killing innocent civilians in the firing line, wants to make Ukraine a worshipper of Moscow, where Ukrainian people don’t have the right to live their own independent life, says Klain.
According to the former commander of the U.S. Army in Europe, Russia may run out of steam in just ten days.
Three weeks into a bloody, chaotic war
Three weeks in, there is finally some better news for those living in Mariupol. Some civilians have finally been able to leave the city along a pre-agreed route, after not being able to leave due to the city being swamped with Kremlin forces.
Mariupol, a key port city in Ukraine’s south-east, is facing a humanitarian crisis after nearly two weeks of continuous Russian shelling.
With critical supplies like food, water, and medicine running out and communication to the outside world all but cut off, the city has long been needing help.
There have been several previous agreements to allow civilians to leave the city, but they quickly broke down each time.
On Monday, the Mariupol city council stated that 160 private vehicles had managed to leave and were on their way to the relative safety of Zaporizhzhia.
The level of destruction in Mariupol has since also been made clear in drone footage, which captured bombed out apartment blocks and smoke rising from the rubble.
