When Will Putin's War Machine Break Down?

This week on One Decision, hosts Kate McCann and former MI6 Chief Sir Richard Dearlove sit down with Russian military scholar Mark Galeotti to examine a war that’s reshaping not only Russia—but the West itself. Galeotti describes how Vladimir Putin, convinced he’s winning, is “burning through Russia’s future” to sustain a failing war. He warns that Europe, which has long sheltered under the American security umbrella, must now take its own defense seriously “if it wants to be taken seriously” and prepare for the unpredictable reality of a post-Putin Russia.
