The UK national security adviser, Jonathan Powell, warns that Europe must prepare for a difficult winter while maintaining pressure on Russia through sanctions. He says European people should continue to absorb the impact of measures targeting Moscow.
Powell argues that leaders should not reduce their efforts at this stage, framing his comments as a call to keep sanctions “going” rather than easing policy. The reporting emphasizes a messaging focus on endurance and sustained economic pressure, with the implication that winter conditions could increase hardship even as sanctions remain in place.
