The Russian military assault on Ukraine "could well be the beginning of the end" for President Vladimir Putin, UK Foreign Secretary Lizz Truss has said.

Speaking to the Trevor Phillips programme on Sky News, Truss said "we are seeing strong and brave Ukrainian resistance" and the UK would "continue to supply them with weapons and economic support".

She said she believed Putin was "making a strategic mistake" given the damage western sanctions would do to the Russian economy.

But she suggested the war could drag on for "a number of years", adding: "This is not going to be - I fear - over quickly."

3. Guess who could determine the Putin/ Ukraine War?..Speculation, but Russian Generals who

lead .."The War"..could decide that Putin is walking "death" for ordering the invasion. They have the power to
replace him. Whenever they decide it is necessary..
