Top-secret Pentagon documents leaked online have provided some painfully detailed accounts of Ukraine’s military capabilities– and a rare window into how Washington is thinking about the war. Kyiv has been quick to insist that the leaks WON’T affect their planned counteroffensive. But the documents reveal weaknesses in the Ukrainian military and open questions about its ability to make significant gains. Today on To The Point we’re looking at the Pentagon leaks, asking: “How does the US really see the war in Ukraine?”

Thomas Wiegold, a journalist focused on defense and security policy
Moritz Gathmann, chief reporter for the German political magazine Cicero
Sudha David Wilp, director of the German Marshall Fund’s Berlin office.
Ben Hodges, former retired US Lieutenant General and Chairman of the GLOBSEC Future Security and Defense Council.
