U.S. intelligence shows 'it is increasingly clear that Putin's war has been a strategic blunder,' the White House said.
Thursday that Putin was trying to follow through on his plan, but "it is failing." So Putin's "Plan B has been more barbarity against civilians and cities," GCHQ director Jeremy Fleming said in his address in Canberra, Australia.
"[I]t increasingly looks like Putin has massively misjudged the situation. It's clear he misjudged the resistance of the Ukrainian people," Fleming said. "He underestimated the strength of the coalition his actions would galvanise. He under-played the economic consequences of the sanctions regime. He overestimated the abilities of his military to secure a rapid victory."
Russian soldiers are "short of weapons and morale" and are "refusing to carry out orders, sabotaging their own equipment and even accidentally shooting down their own aircraft," Fleming said.
