could happen, and also other factors that weigh on the timing of this. listen. heavy armor operations supported by artillery, need solid ground to do that. a mild winter, so it has taken longer for the ground to freeze, it is frozen now and certainly ideal conditions to conduct those armor operations, but another factor here as well, and that is the beijing olympics. he will not conduct an invasion during that time in my judgment, favorable conditions end around mid march in terms of the timeline. sandra: could that indicate a possible invasion is further out, morgan? certainly, i think we are all reading the tea leaves and putin is going to attempt to get away with as much as he can over these coming weeks. remember, it s not just about taking ground back in ukraine. there are plenty of people of russian descent he believes belong to russia, but getting
put in does not like biden, he doesn t trust biden, no confidence in biden. looks at him as a weak commander in chief and using that to kind of divide nato, i said a couple weeks ago was his prime effort. i think he s ready to go. he has the forces to do what he wants to do, it s all up to him. sandra: that is a big prediction. general jack keane had a bit of a different thought on the timing of this. and did hinge with putin and the olympics. olympics end on the 20th, we have about a month or so with favorable conditions to support heavy armor operations. does not mean they cannot do it when the ground thaws and you have more mud than anything else, it s more challenging. favorable conditions end around mid march in terms of the timeline. sandra: started off by saying the olympics end on the 20th, he did not think they would invade while the olympics are underway.

(whistle blowing) did you just spike the footlong? sorry, i didn t want the delay of game.
conduct those armor operations as i discussed. certainly air power would support it. there is another factor here as well. that is the beijing olympics. putin is going to it on february 4. it sends at february 20th. he will not conduct an invasion during that time in my judgment and detract from his cohort and friend s major propaganda venture where they have invested years and billions of money into. and here is another factor. the ground begins to thaw in mid-march. olympics end on the 20th. we have a month or so with favorable conditions to support heavy armor operations. doesn t mean they can t do it when the ground thaws and you have more mud than anything else. it is more challenging then. favorable conditions end around mid-march in terms of the timeline. dana: what do you think about this proposal the possibility of the president deciding to send 5,000 more troops to the region?
