Western nations aim to blunt Russia’s ability to wage future wars in Europe after Ukraine invasion
Britain is pressing with its allies for Vladimir Putin to be so weakened militarily by the war in Ukraine that he can never pose a threat to European security and his forces to entirely leave Ukraine’s territory, with the country reverting to its pre-2014 borders.
The G7 group of industrialised nations is also examining whether it could reimpose the current punitive economic sanctions if Russia tries to renege on the hypothetical future peace deal imposed by western allies.
