Russian President Vladimir Putin is at war with the collective West

Russian chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov says he thinks President Vladimir Putin is at war with the “collective West“. “It’s not me saying that – he has been saying it over years, and his propaganda machine keeps repeating it every day now, 24/7,“ Mr Kasparov told Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan. “The war is about destroying Ukraine – it’s about eliminating Ukraine as a nation and also replaying the Cold War.“ Mr Kasparov said anything short of the “full liberation“ of Ukraine is a “disaster“. “Not just for Ukraine, it’s not just for Europe – for the world,“ he said.
