Rice, who served under former President George W. Bush, made the remarks on CBS’s “Face the Nation” while speaking about how the Biden administration “sometimes seem[ed] to be a little bit behind” in providing Ukrainian troops with the necessary training and equipment to continue fending off Russia.
“But to the degree that [training and equipment] can be accelerated, I think it will help because I think we have to get away from the phrase time is on the Ukrainian side. I would be careful about that,” Rice said.
“Vladimir Putin seems to believe that time is not on the Ukrainian side,” she continued.
“He believes if he throws in the Russian way of war, mass at the problem, poor boys from Dagestan who are just kind of cannon fodder, if he engages in terrorist activities against the Ukrainian population, he’ll wear the Ukrainians down, he’ll wear us down, he’ll wear the Europeans down.
I don’t think that’s right. But we have to do everything that we can to convince him that it is indeed wrong.”
Tens of thousands of Ukrainians have died since Russia invaded on Feb. 24, 2022.
