Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley told lawmakers that Kyiv could fall within 72 hours if a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine takes place, multiple congressional sources tell Fox News.
Milley told lawmakers during closed-door briefings on Feb. 2 and 3 that a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine could result in the fall of Kyiv within 72-hours, and could come at a cost of 15,000 Ukrainian troop deaths and 4,000 Russian troop deaths.
Several lawmakers expressed concern that the Biden administration did not respond quickly to provide Ukraine with significant military aid, such as anti-aircraft and rocket launcher systems that would defend against an invasion from Russia.
Biden administration officials at the meetings responded to these concerns by saying that a significant supply of military aid to Ukraine could be used as a reason to invade Ukraine.
While Ukraine is receiving security assistance from the United States through a $200 million allocation made in December, it is also receiving $600 million in assistance from the United Kingdom and Baltic states, which the country is depending heavily upon and includes anti-tank Javelin missiles and older-version Stinger portable anti-aircraft missiles.

Hey Milley STFU you moron.
The Russians could take Kiev, no question about that. But it would be like Chechnya. Not sure if the Russian population would have the appetite for that. Things may be stagnating in Russia but they can always get worse. Putin is more likely to capture eastern part of Ukraine where it is Russian speaking and call it a day.
No, the Ukrainians will not roll over
this idiot was made to be hung
Milley is a damn REMF. His remarks are sick. Eisenhower nor any senior Gen we ever had was as ignorant nor such a disgrace.
Considering how incorrect his comments were during Afghanistan, I’m not too concerned about these current bloviations.
And NONE of them want to defend our OWN southern border.
Did Milley call his Chi-com General buddy, and give him a heads-up?
So! If Kyiv falls it falls.Why should the United States defend Kyiv when it won’t even defend our own country.
Besides that I have Zero confidence in Milly the Clown,Secretary Austin or any one in the Senior Ranks of the DOD. Nor after their Afghan disaster.
?
Heck, our Southern border collapsed within hours of bidet beingsworn in and declaring the border open.
"So long, Lone Star State! You look like a tiny star set against the vast colossal sky of Mother Russia!"
Did Milley Vannili get that estimate from Putin in a phone call?
Follow up question; what did he promise to do for Pooty?
Milley wants a war, even if it’s a nuclear war with Russia. He’s angry because Trump didn’t let him start a war. But Biden will because Biden is a Neocon. There have been conflicting reports about US troops being deployed in Poland, Bulgaria and Ukraine. But the 6th Fleet has been put under Nato command, something the US has never done. Is the US going to war against Russia? It looks like the answer is yes. The Socalled Anti-War crowd has put a war monger in power who could indeed start a nuclear war.
Miley can go suck it. He may go down in history as the worst in his role for all times. His family knows the truth. How can any man go home, see the wife and kids knowing your a complete POS. yeah he got the job, the big position yet has no honor. Your family sees that. The know if your honorable or not.
Personally I would take honor over some magic, all powerful positions. I know my wife and kids (adults) can tell the difference. Millet just plain sucks. His family knows it also. I hope his parents are passed so the don’t have to pretend they are proud.
If they were really concerned they would be arming civilians with caches of hand grenades and C4
The Winter Olympics close February 20, 2022. By March 1, 2022 this crisis will peak and be over. IMHO there will be no Russian attack.
What is the difference between Milley and a Moron?
