"There's a steamroller on the far side of the room, and a guy standing there, holding up his hand, and shouting,"No!" Then they zoom out, and the steamroller is moving incredibly slowly and is really far away," said Sullivan.
"The guy's just standing there, frozen, shouting as it inches across the room. I said I was determined that we were not going to be that guy — just waiting for the steamroller to roll over Ukraine. We were going to act."when US officials had seen a stream of classified US intelligence indicating Russia's intentions, yet had felt powerless as they couldn't share the information with the public.
Sullivan said that he and other top national security officials settled on the unprecedented strategy of declassifying US intelligence about Russia's plans. They wanted to highlight the urgency of the situation to the rest of the world, as the Kremlin continued to deny it was planning an invasion. "All the conditions were there for us to try something new and bold, but risky.
Ahead of the war, the US made several releases of declassified information to pre-empt and stymie the Kremlin's plans. The documents exposed that the Kremlin's denials that it was planning to invade Ukraine were false. They also released how Russia planned on toppling the government in Kyiv, and its plans to push disinformation to justify the invasion.
