BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT – Within the spring of 2022, Ukraine beat again a Russian assault on the nation’s capital and punished the invaders on many fronts. Two years later, the nation faces stark realities on a number of fronts: Russia is pounding the nation’s infrastructure whereas laying the groundwork for a contemporary offensive; Ukraine is making ready what some have referred to as a “spring defensive,” its offensive functionality restricted to uneven warfare towards targets in southern Russia and Russian-held Crimea; and hanging over the battlefield is the holdup of U.S. navy support, which has hampered Ukrainian air defenses and dwindled its shares of ammunition. And whereas the stakes for Ukraine stay existential, a rising refrain of consultants now says the stakes are profound for the U.S. and Europe as nicely.
This was the background for a high-level Cipher Transient delegation that traveled to Ukraine final week – led by former U.S. commander and director of the Central Intelligence Company Common David Petraeus and together with a roster of different Cipher Transient consultants from the navy and intelligence sectors. The group held conferences with high officers in Ukraine–from the federal government, the navy, the parliament and the personal sector–to realize a greater understanding of the present state of the struggle, the temper in Ukraine, what might loom within the weeks and months forward, and the stakes for the nation, the area and the world.
