00:00What I think that we have witnessed so far is a rapid Russian military campaign
00:07that seeks to rapidly dislocate, encircle and destroy Ukrainian forces
00:12in a multi-pronged assault that was launched overnight.
00:17I think Russian troops have certainly launched a full-scale invasion of the country.
00:22Russia, I expect, will try to seek a rapid conclusion of this conflict as soon as possible.
00:28It has no interest or should have no interest in prolonging this conflict.
00:34I think the idea, as I said at the beginning, is really to destroy or at least dislocate Ukrainian armed
00:40forces,
00:41overwhelm them, encircle them as quickly as possible and force them to capitulate,
00:45or if they don't capitulate, destroy them.
