Thank you for your analysis. Russia does not change. My grandfather was rounded up to serve in the Russian Army during WWI. The brutality of today’s Russian Army is strikingly similar to what he described. My only hope is George Smiley’s comment on Karla. May his (Putin’s) lack of moderation be his undoing. I look forward to reading more from you in 2023.

This survey underlines the key value of this series of assessments in 2022, which is to explore the imponderables as well as the evidence. I have shared Prof Freedman's pieces with Whitehall colleagues who have all welcomed his insight and expertise: please keep them coming in 2023!
