From: Maia Mikhaluk in Kyiv (1059th day)
Former British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace Calls for ‘High Prison Fence’ around ruzzia:
“The West should start ‘building a high prison fence’ around ruzzia in 2025 and ‘closing the door’ on the ruzzian elite,” he wrote in a column for The Telegraph.
According to Wallace, three years of war have shown that putin’s criminal and fascist regime is far from a few ‘old, embittered KGB officers’. The notion that the war is not conducted by the ruzzian people but ‘just a small clique in the Kremlin’, as the British Ministry of Defense said at the start of the war, has proven to be wrong, the former minister believes.
“It turns out that the ruzzians not only support the invasion, but also support the use of torture, mass murder, contract killings and cyberattacks. As with Adolf Hitler’s Germany, ruzzia’s actions are only possible thanks to the broad support of its citizens.”
Wallace believes that unlike the Soviet era, when “hundreds of dissidents spoke out boldly or campaigned from exile,” now “the number of those who do so is in the single digits.” According to the former British defense minister, “most Russians abroad—in the UAE, Cyprus, or in European capitals—believe putin is right (while protecting their own sons from being drafted into the war with Ukraine).”
The former official calls ruzzia a “criminal state” and calls for the same treatment of it as is usually done with criminals:
“Like other criminals, ruzzia should be behind bars: prison bars of its own making.” “We are removing criminals from society, we should do the same to ruzzia.”
