That said the British commander in chief today in an interview with the British broadcaster BBC. He says Putin is firmly in the saddle.
Stable regime
“As military professionals, we see a relatively stable regime in Russia. President Putin has managed to crush every opposition, we see a hierarchy built around Putin and so no one at the top has any reason to challenge him.” said Radakin. “And that’s bleak.”

According to the British admiral, whoever will succeed Prime Minister Boris Johnson should be aware that Russia poses “the greatest threat” to the United Kingdom and that this situation could continue for a long time.
Huge losses
However, the commander said that Russian land forces may now pose a lesser threat, after the enormous losses on the battlefield in Ukraine. The invasion, according to Radakin, killed or wounded 50,000 Russian soldiers and destroyed nearly 1,700 Russian tanks and about 4,000 armored fighting vehicles.
