"Western policy is for this to end in a way that it actually has finished rather than just provided Putin with some kind of frozen conflict."
Putin will not stop until "he is fought to a standstill", former MI6 chief Alex Younger tells #TimesRadio.

    • 5:14: The old interviewer (don't know who the Times Radio male interviewer's name) did, indeed, say Yugoslavia, which is a mistake. That's a bit odd, but it's a mistake we've all made when having conversations (no matter our age). A correction (small type at the bottom, for example) would have been nice.

Also, just in general this reminds me of the times I had long term work assignments in the UK (I’m from the US) and what a pleasure it was to watch the political discourse there, where people talked intelligently and journalists actually asked good follow up questions that were challenging yet respectful.

He answers questions not by evading, deflecting and pivoting but by providing a broader perspective and context from which to contemplate the issues involved such as cellular and internet connectivity.

    • Another sadly twisted one way expressed by a person who is just as brainwashed, as the people who regard him as an expert on this complex subject. I would like to know where his idea that the Russians want all of Ukraine. This conflict arose to prevent NATO, ergo the USA, putting missiles along their border. Nothing else. Would the USA allow China to operate within Mexico? Missiles on the Mexican border with America. I don't think so.

  • In the welter of talking heads opining about the war, you occassionally find a commentator who clearly stands head and shoulders above the others in wisdom and insight. Younger is one such authority. Immense knowledge and experience combined with balance, and just the right degree of caution/realpolitik in his assessments.

Everything made sense, the seemingly alarming (now perfectly explained) disclosure of much that is known about the Russian forces and their dodgy outdated and malfunctioning equipment. The reality of, previously assumed, impregnable cyber security based on sheer ignorance of such matters and the desperate need for eyes to be opened and caution to be instilled on all who deal in sensitive information and/or attend high level meetings where tech, including personal items, should never be trusted. There is so much reassurance in this for me, thank you, thank you!
