Got a running narrative in your head again, armchair Putin apologist? You should write a screenplay.
U.S. officials said the Ukrainian government gave them few classified briefings or details about their operational plans, and Ukrainian officials acknowledged that they did not tell the Americans everything.
Of course the U.S. intelligence community collects information about nearly every country, including Ukraine. But American spy agencies, in general, focus their collection efforts on adversarial governments, like Russia, not current friends, like Ukraine. And while Russia has been a top priority for American spies for 75 years, when it came to the Ukrainians, the United States has worked on building up their intelligence service, not spying on their government.
The result, former officials said, has been some blind spots. . . .
Ukraine, the officials said, wants to present an image of strength, both to the public and to its close partners. The government does not want to share information that could suggest a weakening of resolve, or give the impression that they might not win. In essence, Ukrainian officials do not want to present information that might encourage the United States and its other Western partners to slow the flow of arms.
This isn't close to what you're trying so hard to make it be. It makes complete sense and as time goes on some of this will likely get ironed out. In the meantime, Newsflash:
Russia invaded Ukraine's sovereign territory and has engaged in a was of terrorism and genocide against the Ukrainian people. It has razed their cities, killed Ukrainian children even when buildings and cars were marked as containing children, and raped Ukrainian women and yes, their children. Your continued support of Putin has been made clear. Don't be surprised when you're considered Putin's useful propagandist.
Yeah. You said it.
