Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has said the UK must accelerate NATO's modernisation and deepen cooperation on tech and cyber, with a view to ending the "strategic dependence on authoritarian regimes for our energy and for other vital resources."
She added that Russian President Vladimir Putin had been “surprised” by the “toughness” of sanctions levelled against his regime.
Speaking at a press conference with US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, in Washington, she said: “Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine is causing immense pain and suffering. Yet he is not making the progress he planned.
“Since the build-up on the border, the United Kingdom and the United States have led work in the G7 and through Nato to challenge Putin’s aggression.
“Before the invasion, the United States and the UK called out his playbook of false flags, attempts to install a puppet regime in Kyiv, of fake provocations. We worked with our G7 allies to warn that he would face severe costs and a determined Ukrainian people.
“We have surprised Putin with our unity and the toughness of our sanctions, hitting the banks, the ships, the planes, the oligarchs, and the oil and gas revenues. And the brave Ukrainian people have surprised him with their determination and their leadership.
“Now is not the time to let up. Putin must fail.”
Editor's note: Fine rhetoric from Ms Truss but it would have been more credible if she had mentioned where the thinks to oil needed to fuel the UK economy might be sources if not from tyrannical regimes like Russia, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela, Syria and other oil producing nations with regimes that fall a long way short of being squeaky clean.

The report also blows a huge hole in Johnson's grandiose pledges to the COP26 conference that offshore wind power would propel Britain to its net - zero target for Carbon Dioxide emissions well before 2050, the target set by the climate conference for achieving that target.

COP26 Climate Conference - Just Another Elitist Scam To Steal Your Money
If you are one of the people who still relies on mainstream media for information, the 'on - message' news reports coming from the COP26 Climate Conference in Glasgow this week, and during the build up to the conference, might have convinced you that the entire world (barring a few crazy conspiacy theorists,) is signed up to the 'net zero' agenda and believes that destroying the economies of the developed nations while exporting our jobs, business and prosperity to places like India and China is the only way to save the planet.

Ireland Set To Become The First Country To Totally Abandon Fossil Fuels
The Irish have a reputation for stupidity. They are, taken as a whole, no more stupid than the English, French, Germans or any other nation, I’ve known many Irish people who are highly intelligent and very well educated. My wife is Anglo – Irish, born in England to Irish parents, so I sleep next to an intelligent Irish person. But collectively the Irish do have a penchant for making incredibly bad decisions ...

This has been a terrible week for the renewable energy business.
