Putin poised to strike in the Big Freeze
By Lieutenant-General Jonathon Riley
The Conservative Woman - Interview
IN PREVIOUS articles for TCW I have set out the evidence that the Russians intend to move to the offensive and do so while the ground is hard. Yet so far there has been no big push and readers will no doubt be asking ‘Why?’ Many may feel that I have misread the situation and that the old boy is losing his marbles. Well, no. Russia is on the offensive on sea, land, in the air and in cyberspace, conducting what in the trade are known as ‘shaping operations’.

They may be right, of course, especially given the poor battlefield performance of the Russian military and the enormous cost in casualties. However, Putin has not finished yet, whether at the tactical level in this current war, or in terms of long-term strategy.
