would smartphones, and to think nobody would feel smartphones, and to think nobody would feel comfortable reporting this. she s not talking about the police this. she s not talking about the police per this. she s not talking about the police per se, but she s saying there police per se, but she s saying there needs to be better mechanisms to encourage people to come over. that comes to encourage people to come over. that comes down from the top. if you re that comes down from the top. if you re in that comes down from the top. if you re in the workplace and will feel comfortable making reports and complaints were voiced her concerns, that the complaints were voiced her concerns, that the problem set by the top. not the people at the bottom who are struggling. she has a lot to answer for, struggling. she has a lot to answer for. and struggling. she has a lot to answer for. and it s struggling. she has a lot to answer for, and it s remarkable. we had boris for, and i
his decisions will take him. but we remain concerned about the range of options that he could pursue and we ll stay focused on this problem set. and i ll turn to the chairman there for his thoughts. in terms of the size of the forces that are amassed right now, they could. i mean, it s potntial. we don t think there s been a decision as the secretary already made. but, sure, with 100,000 troops and you ve got combined arms formations, ground maneuver, artillery, rockets, air and all the other parts that go with it, there s a potential that they could launch on very, very little warning. that s possible. and there s a wide scale of options that are available to russian leadership. and the best option they should pick in my view is a diplomatic solution to resolve whatever differences they have. in terms of how this feels, your second part of the question, as we look at that
have left? yeah, we do believe it started yesterday closing, depending on how the rest of the russians are and where they go. part of the country and potential certain cities could be closing. other parts of the country will remain wide open. and again, that is part of the ebb and flow that we work through this problem set. it is very difficult to lock an entire country down. as large as the russian forces and has been, this gets harder on them, also come every day to try to control mass terrain. so this is not an easy task for them. they will see resistance, and i think we are looking for where are the weaknesses that we can exploit? todd: assuming groups like yours and groups can get as many people out as possible, and it s not just what i m referencing now, how bad could the refugee situation become again not just
doing? ukraine is 780 miles long and about 350 miles wide. that s a big battle space. when you take a long this axis for the russians, they have to cover about 1,000 miles. so they re coordinating activity across the board and not just the arrows that are coming into that, but how do you resupport that with logistics? how do you bring trucks up to give it s a problem set right here. it s very challenging. and we can see because he hasn t been moving. ukrainian commander on the other side, what they re trying to do is move forces to different pl places where they see the biggest threat. the other thing he has to worry about is he has limited means. what do i mean, not a whole lot of airplanes, not a whole lot of artilleries a lot of willful fighters who want to take the fight to targets.
they have tried to explain it to people. we need to be in georgia because we re protecting the interests of russian citizens there. we need to invade ukraine because crimeans want to be in russia. i think there s a lot of debate about whether or not that s true. okay. so two things here before you let you go. one is, what is he going to do with a country if he invades ukraine? a country full of people that actually hate him. and what should the u.s. and nato allies be doing to stop him? is there anything that can be done to stop him? i think there s a lot that can be done. we re not using appropriate imagination and how we re approaching this problem set. i think the two questions you asked are essentially the same one. it is really great that our intelligence is so fabulous and we think tomorrow is the day or whatever, and the invasion will happen. what about six months after that? what is the plan for the 12th month after that? are we really aware of how much this will change for
