Putin preparing for prolonged war in Ukraine, says top US intelligence official

The Russian president is preparing for a long conflict in Ukraine and a Russian victory in the Donbas might not end the war, the US director of national intelligence has warned.

Speaking at a Senate hearing, Avril Haines said the Russian president was counting on western resolve to weaken over time 'as food shortages, inflation and energy prices get worse'
