On the 11th, Director Burns of the US CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) gave a harsh view at a hearing in the Senate that Ukraine would lose a lot of territory if new military aid from the US to Ukraine continues to be suspended. "It will be a historic failure," he said.
In the United States, as the budget for aid to Ukraine has dried up and new military aid has ceased, CIA Director Byrnes attended a hearing of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on the 11th.
In this regard, Secretary Burns stated regarding military aid, ``If we choose not to provide support to Ukraine, a more disastrous future awaits us.Ukraine may lose a lot of territory this year.'' Ta.
He then expressed a sense of crisis, saying that without new military aid, ``it will be a historic failure.''
On the other hand, Secretary Burns analyzed that if military aid is resumed, ``Ukraine will be able to regain the initiative on the offensive by the end of this year or early next year.''
He also said, ``Maintaining support for Ukraine will help deter China in areas such as Taiwan and the South China Sea, and that is what is at stake today.'' As China increases its military activities, he will continue to support Ukraine. He expressed the view that this could have an impact on the security of the Indo-Pacific region.
