Call for Action
Labour grandee Lord Robertson, the ex-Nato chief leading Britain’s defence review, is urging a tougher stance towards Russia, stating that it's time to take the gloves off.
Key Points
Lord Robertson believes that only by showing an absence of Western caution can Kremlin tyrant Vladimir Putin be compelled to retreat from Ukraine. He emphasizes that the security of the West is at stake and that the stakes could not be higher.
Pushing for Support to Ukraine
Lord Robertson dismissed fears of Putin resorting to tactical nuclear weapons, highlighting their lack of military utility and the potential backlash on Russia. He called for allies to provide Kyiv with more resources to target Russian bases effectively.
Confronting a 'Deadly Quartet'
Describing Moscow as part of a "deadly quartet" alongside China, Iran, and North Korea, Lord Robertson stressed the need for the UK and Nato to confront these challenges. His remarks on China's role in Russia's war in Ukraine were notably stronger than previous statements.
