This address by President Zelenskyy is heart-wrenching.
Faced with the—expected— US betrayal, he must be able to count on Europe.
If Europe does not help Ukraine defeat russia by all necessary means, it will bury its dignity, its principles, its legitimacy—and its security.

According to Clausewitz, war is a “trinity”: the people, the armed forces, and the government. And the people are the most sensitive part when it comes to supporting the war. Without public support, it is impossible to fight successfully.

Requiring from Ukraine that it halves its army & weaponry would amount to depriving the country of its only protection against its agressor. There is only one agressor in this war:
If Putin withdraws its troops tomorrow, the war is over.
If Zelensky does so, Ukraine as we know it disappears.

Moore argues that Ukraine should have the right to strike deep into Russia, that more economic pressure should be brought to bear on the Putin regime. “This is a very winnable contest,” he says. “It’s particularly important that we don’t snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.”
The outgoing head of the Secret Intelligence Service sits down for lunch with FT editor Roula Khalaf to discuss the rise of China, why Putin is not interested in talks — and how screen spies aren’t always far from the truth.
