He told the FT, “It is true that the situation on the battlefield looks bad. But in the first months of 2022, everything looked even worse.
“What I hate in conversations with European and American experts – and I hate this word, which I usually do not use — is that everyone asks: what is Ukraine ready for, what is Ukraine ready to accept?
“And I say: guys, first find an answer to the question of what Putin is ready to accept. Because that’s where this war starts.”
The head of MI6 Sir Richard Moore has warned that should Putin win the war in Ukraine “he will not stop there” and will attack other countries.
Sir Richard said, “In 37 years in the intelligence profession I’ve never seen the world in a more dangerous state. And the impact on Europe, our shared European home, could hardly be more serious.”
He added that if “Putin is allowed to succeed in reducing Ukraine to a vassal state he will not stop there.”
