Are these senior UK defence figures brand new? Who in HMG thought that this wasn't the most likely outcome?
"The US administration are doing this above Zelensky's head... The b******s are gonna do this" @nicholaswatt reports shock from senior UK defence figures, after Donald Trump said he and Vladimir Putin would begin talks to end the war in Ukraine "immediately". #Newsnight
