The best and probably the only way to save civilization is to defeat Putin as quickly as possible
Soros emphasized.
He predicted that the Russian leadership had concluded that the invasion was a mistake and would seek a ceasefire.
But a truce cannot be reached because it cannot be trusted (…). The weaker Putin is, the more unpredictable he is
– she says.
Gas supply interruption
The EU must understand that Putin can cut gas supplies to the Community “when it really hurts”
He warned.
Soros sees the war in Ukraine as part of a larger struggle between an open society and a closed state like Russia or China, Reuters reports.
Repressive regimes are now on the rise and open society is under attack (…). Currently, China and Russia are the biggest threats to open society
Soros said.
