DAME PRITI PATEL
Scottish Daily Express
|August 18, 2025
THIS weekend's summit in Alaska will be remembered as a turning point for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. President Trump's direct intervention with Putin was undoubtedly significant and we support every genuine effort to end this brutal conflict.
-
Russia's decade-long aggression in the region and Putin's despotic regime can never be airbrushed from history. An end to this conflict requires a just and lasting peace for Ukraine and for the Ukrainian people.
Suggestions of territorial concessions would amount to ratifying barbaric and unprovoked aggression.
Putin has shown he has not abandoned his territorial ambitions. His Soviet negotiating tactics have shown he is not serious about peace and yet, through these talks he is seeking to win legitimacy.

IT'S A FAMILY AFFAIR
A little goes a very long way in the third chapter of director James Cameron's blockbusting franchise.
