“Since October 2021, when he first briefed President Joe
Biden on Russia’s plans to invade Ukraine, Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley reportedly kept

the U.S. military and NATO with Russia.” The second,
closely related, was “contain war inside the geographical
boundaries of Ukraine.”17
