India's Narendra Modi to visit Ukraine
Putin 'in a position he never dreamt in his worst nightmares'
Ukraine has put Vladimir Putin "into a position he never dreamt in his worst nightmares", former foreign secretary Malcolm Rifkind has told Sky News.
Asked whether the invasion into the Russian territory of Kursk had been a gamechanger in the two-year war between Russia and Ukraine, Mr Rifkind said: "It's not by itself something that is going to defeat Russia.
"But it puts Putin into a position he never dreamt in his worst nightmares that he would be in because the Ukrainians have shown the complete uselessness of the Russian forces."
Mr Rifkind, who was foreign secretary under former prime minister John Major, went on: "Putin has always prided himself that the thing he does is provide security to Russia..
"Well this war has been a disaster for him, the change to NATO has been Sweden and Finland joining, which they had never done for almost 70 years, and now he finds parts of Russia occupied by the Ukrainians."
