Chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov’s thread on recommendations to deal with Putin’s aggression is a must read

"Stop telling me I was right and listen to what I'm saying now."

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has demanded tougher sanctions and support fending off the Russian invasion as Kyiv was hit by air strikes.

Mr Zelensky also called for allies to provide “effective counteraction” against Moscow’s advances after holding talks with Boris Johnson on Friday morning.

Downing Street said the prime minister pledged further support “in the coming days” after the president updated him on the “terrible developments” in the Ukrainian capital.

Held talks with 🇬🇧 PM @BorisJohnson. Reported on the course of 🇺🇦’s defense and insidious attacks on Kyiv by the aggressor. Today 🇺🇦 needs the support of partners more than ever. We demand effective counteraction to the Russian Federation. Sanctions must be further strengthened.

Kasparov

Meanwhile, Garry Kasparov, a vocal opponent of Vladimir Putin, took to Twitter to give his recommendations on how to deal with Russia’s aggression and a warning not to ignore his calls to deal with the leader ever again.

He wrote: “Ok, after years of warnings were ignored and hearing “Garry, you were right!” all damn day today, I’ll repeat what I said in 2014: Stop telling me I was right and listen to what I’m saying now. My recommendations follow:”

Ok, after years of warnings were ignored and hearing "Garry, you were right!" all damn day today, I'll repeat what I said in 2014: Stop telling me I was right and listen to what I'm saying now. My recommendations follow: 1/5

“Recall all ambassadors from Russia. There is no point in talking. The new unified message is “stop or be isolated completely”. -Ban all elements of Putin’s global propaganda machine. Turn them off, shut them down, send them home. Stop helping the dictator spread lies & hate.”

He ended with a warning to Putin apologists…

“Cannot ignore the political 5th column of Putinists, from the far right & left in EU to the tankies & Trump & his GOP followers in the US. They may have the right to support a brutal dictator’s war in order to criticize Biden, but it’s disgusting and anti-American. Do not forget.”

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
