10 Things We Got wrong About Russia

  • Summary

  • This podcast deals with the horrific invasion of Ukraine by Putin’s Russia; the mistakes that were made which have contributed to the war and the lessons to be learnt. Now there are key issues to be faced. Sanctions will not work if they exclude the energy sector. We have to engage countries like India and China with close links to Russia.

    We have to arm the Ukrainians as best we can being careful to avoid direct military confrontation and engagement with NATO.
