According to a report, five weeks into an invasion that has blasted cities into wastelands, u.s. and european officials say the russian president has been mislead by his generals about the dire performance of the russian military. Reportedly, there is a belief that the president thought things were going better than they were. According to the report, staunch Ukraine resistance has prevented Russia from capturing a major city. Reportedly, the ukrainian president said they were seeing a build up of russian troops for new strikes on Donbas and were preparing for it.
