On Wednesday, the /Intercept/, in an article by veteran National
Security journalist James Risen, reported that Biden has authorized
clandestine CIA operations inside Ukraine, likely meaning that American
special forces are actually deployed in the country.

“The clandestine American operations inside Ukraine are now far more
extensive than they were early in the war,” Risen reports. “There is a
much larger presence of both CIA and U.S. special operations personnel
and resources in Ukraine than there were at the time of the Russian
invasion in February.

“Secret U.S. operations inside Ukraine are being conducted under a
presidential covert action finding, current and former officials said.
The finding indicates that the president has quietly notified certain
congressional leaders about the administration’s decision to conduct a
broad program of clandestine operations inside the country.”

Meanwhile, sections of the US political establishment are calling for an
even more aggressive US intervention, providing Ukraine with missiles
that would be able to strike into the heart of Russian territory.
