from the air. this is the most urgent task nowadays. what does it take to defeat putin at this point? that s hard to say. i mean, first of all, i believe that this is it takes good army and ukraine has a good army. and there is a political view and the people fight to the very end. i believe the only thing, we have good access to resources, this is the main criteria, the main condition of the victory. how long do you think this goes on? it s war for long, definitely. for long? how long? in best case, it s probably several months. several months in the best case? best case. worst case? worst case, it will go for several years. and they ll have a syria scenario. i don t believe putin could be in the war, but he could destroy a lot of the country, and what price are we supposed to pay for
were doing it by uprising and et cetera. syria has now brought back the narrative of al qaeda. where do you think al qaeda is? they are more effective. we ve got to keep one thing in mind you just mentioned, this comes off the back of the egyptian militaryover throwing i spent time with their leaders in prison. i know them intimately. i ve been critical of the ideology per se. i ve been critical of the muslim brotherhood s track record. at the same time, i don t believe it military dictatorships. so at the back of a democratically yet liberal regime being overthrown by a military regime in egypt we now have the syria scenario. it s easy for al qaeda to say look we tried democracy in egypt. we used to give flowers to the syrian troops and we re being killed. the only thing that works is violence. that s a recruitment sergeant to al qaeda. i want to bring in the literary editor of the new republic he joins us now from washington.
