Hodges emphasized that Crimea is sovereign to Ukraine, suggesting that the U.S. will not restrict Ukraine's actions, including anticipated attacks on critical infrastructure like the Kerch Bridge.
The retired general noted that reclaiming Crimea is vital for Ukraine's military strategy, as the peninsula serves as a key staging ground for Russian operations.
