Putin hopes that Ukraine will be defeated and the Ramstein group will be destroyed, and he will occupy the territory of another country.

Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is trying to wage war against Ukraine on a 19th century scale, which in 2024 is a strategic mistake. US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said this on Monday, May 20, at a briefing after the virtual meeting of the Contact Group on Defense Issues of Ukraine (Ramstein-22).

“Putin’s forces have opened another front to occupy the sovereign territory of Ukraine. The Kremlin’s occupiers are destroying Ukrainian villages, killing innocent civilians and bombing civilian infrastructure, including dams and power plant,” Austin said.

According to him, Ukrainian defenders are fighting hard, but “Russian troops are paying a high price for Putin’s aggression.”

“Putin believes that eventually Ukraine will collapse. And he’s betting that this Contact Group will collapse, but he’s wrong,” Austin said.

The US Secretary of Defense emphasized that Ukraine is fighting for its life, and it provides “a strategic advantage to a just cause.”

“Meanwhile, Putin is trying to wage a war of 19th-century imperial aggression in 2024. It’s a terrible idea and a terrible strategy,” the Pentagon chief added.

Earlier it was reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were repelling the attacks in four directions.
