'Very difficult' to eject Russian forces from Ukraine this year: US general

Description

US Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Mark Milley expresses strong doubt that Ukraine will succeed in driving Russian troops out of its territory this year. At a US-hosted meeting on Ukraine in Germany, Milley tells reporters: "From a military standpoint I still maintain that for this year it would be very, very difficult to militarily eject the Russian forces from all, every inch of... Russian-occupied Ukraine." SOUNDBITE
