“The Western strategy on Ukraine has been built on four pillars - that Ukraine can win a war against Russia with NATO weapons, that sanctions would weaken Russia and destabilise its leadership, that sanctions would hurt Russia more than Europe, and that the world would line up in support of Europe. This strategy has failed as governments in Europe are collapsing like dominoes, energy prices have surged and a new strategy was needed now. We are sitting in a car that has a puncture in all four tyres: it is absolutely clear that the war cannot be won in this way. Ukraine will never win the war this way quite simply because the Russian army has assymetrical dominance.”
