Athens (AFP) – At a meeting with Greece’s Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken calls Russia’s invasion of Ukraine a “strategic failure” as Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed to “systematically” continue the offensive that began almost a year ago. “One year after President Putin attacked Ukraine, It’s clear that his war has been a strategic failure in every way,” Blinken says in Athens at the close of a five-day trip to the region.
