” We need to make it deeply unpleasant for the oligarchs that support the Putin routine. There are over a hundred Russian billionaires.
” Nothing is off the table in regards to who or what we are targeting. We are really clear about that– we are really prepared to do what it takes.”
Ms Truss cautioned that the dispute in Ukraine was most likely to be drawn-out with the Ukrainians identified to withstand their Russian intruders.
” This will be long-running since the Ukrainians are battling,” she stated.
” We can see they’re really encouraged, that they are figured out to secure their sovereignty and their self-determination, so this will be a really long-running dispute.
” And I do not understand how it will play out. We need to make sure that Putin loses.”
