She has no choice, while Putin keeps upping the ante.
For 20 years or more the West has been conciliating and kind to Russia, providing havens for oligarchs to launder money and homes for them.
Obama made threats over Syria, but was afraid to follow through, we took little or no action over the assasination in the UK of people Putin did not like, including the Scripols, whi survived an attempted poisoning that killed ant innocent British woman.
Putin has been taken aback at Western response to the Ukraine war. It was not what he expected, the West had begun to discover it had a back bine after all. So now he is threatening nuclear war.
Not just our Foreign Secretary, but the Foreign Secretaries of all the NATO countries and others have got to talk tough, rattle sabres and show that Putin, we have the guts and gumption to respond if he starts preparing for nuclear war.
What is the option, bow down and agree to let him rough shod over every country that escaped from Russian domination in the post war years. If we are scared to respond when he attacks Ukraine, and he is already inching into Moldavia, what chance do the Baltic states have, even though they belong to NATO and the EU and then where? Do you want your grandchildren growing up in a country dominated by Russia?
Liz Trusses 'inflammatory' statements are essential for our security in the short and long term. We are in this mess because we have appeased Russia for so long. He thought he could walk into Ukraine and that the West was too weak and unwilling to oppose him. He is going to keep upping the ante to see if we are likely to back down again. our response has got to be dertmined and threatening.
