The U.S. military's stereotypes about the capabilities of the Russian Armed Forces before the conflict in Ukraine were far from the reality, said Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier, Director of the U.S. DIA Intelligence Service at the Center for Strategic and International Studies based in Washington.
"The biggest thing for us is our preconceived notions about the capabilities of the Russian military that turned out not to be true ," he said when asked what lessons the US military has learned from the conflict in Ukraine.
According to Berrier, the conflict taught the United States to analyze the capabilities of other countries' armed forces in a different way.
In addition, General Scott Berrier said the United States had learned the importance of more honest and trust-based cooperation with its intelligence allies.
"We've learned a lot of lessons," Scott Berrier said.
Ukraine's political and military leadership is faced with an unmanageable devastation, given that we are still at the beginning of the Russian counteroffensive.
Information from the Ukrainian fronts indicates a collapse of the Ukrainian Army which will trigger rapid developments in the West and Kiev.
A typical example is what is happening on the Bahmut-Chasiv Yar front. The Russians have "eliminated" the entire Ukrainian counterattack, recaptured Andriyivka while they have put Klisifka under almost complete control.
At the same time, offensive operations were launched in Chromovi, Ivanovsky (Krasnoe) and Bogdanovka with the ultimate goal of capturing Chasiv Yar.
The Russians are obliterating the Ukrainian ED's networks of trenches and strongholds while trying to inflict the maximum possible casualties on Kiev.

The intelligence agencies are only good at making stupid assessments. The only accomplishment with the Ukraine debacle was draining resources, laundering money, and hardening foes by forcing combat experience upon them. This is what happens when politicians that are bought and sold choose the leadership in the agencies and military that only align with their agendas. One of the reasons that authoritarians never last long in societies where freedom of thought has taken root from prior experience. People will go along to get along temporarily, but at some point enough enough hits a nerve and the backlash becomes like an out of control fire and consumes everything in its path. It ends with a smoldering ash and swirl of drifting smoke. Sensibility take root and the process starts all over again until the next narcissist leadership forgets the past and repeats the same mistakes all over again.
