Democracy at the heart of conflict with Putin: Dan Hoffman
Fox News
Former CIA Chief of Station Dan Hoffman appeared on “Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy” to discuss the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
"I think his goals have definitely changed. At the beginning, he said he had this special military operation, refused to call it a war. He expected to occupy Ukraine, decapitate its government within two or three days and install some puppet government there that would suit Moscow’s interests. That didn’t happen, and so he’s had to swivel. And in the Potemkin village of propaganda where he lives, he wants to tell us that now Russia’s goal is simply to secure eastern Ukraine," Hoffman said.
