Flynn’s wrong - Putins been consistent with warnings that if appropriate measures were not being taken , such as Nuclear and Arms agreements for the security of the world, that the balane of power would contine to shift in directions people would not be prepared for.....and this would happen without citizens having any say in it.
I think Gen.Flynn and TtT are being very guarded and careful with their statements re: Russia and Ukraine. Fog of war and all that.
