‘Putin is not the force he used to be’, says Defence Sec
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has said Vladimir Putin’s power has been significantly damaged by his illegal war on Ukraine, describing the Russian president as a “man in a cage that he built himself”.
He said: “President Putin is not the force he used to be … Russia is a lesser country rather than a greater country as a result of him knowingly and deliberately breaking international law by invading … the reputation of this great army of Russia has been trashed." Report by Buseld.

Germany's proposed 2025 budget aims to halve military aid for Ukraine from €8 billion to €4 billion. This comes amid economic challenges, with a €17-billion budget gap and plans for increased borrowing. The decision reflects broader financial pressures, including the depletion of a special military modernization fund by 2028. Germany's economic struggles are partly attributed to its rejection of Russian energy sources.
