russian president vladimir putin is mistaken if he thinks he can win a war of attrition in Ukraine Head of the CIA William Burns stated this, covering a range of topics at a security forum in Aspen, Colorado, sky.news reports. As the publication notes, Burns believes that the russian president would be wrong to think he can win a bloody war of attrition against Ukraine. He had previously been proven wrong in believing that his troops could capture Kyiv within the first days of the invasion. Burns says the aggressor country's president miscalculated his initial invasion plans, failing to capture Kyiv with a lightning strike.
