Britain must be “ready” to fight a war with Russia by 2027, the new British Chief of the Air Staff, Sir Roly Walker, has said. The senior officer said war was “not inevitable” and that the army had “just enough time” to prepare and avoid conflict. Among the main threats the UK will face in the coming years, the general said in a briefing, is a Russia that could seek revenge on the West for its support of Ukraine, regardless of who wins the war.

“I think Russia will probably come out of this weaker but still very, very dangerous and wanting some form of retribution for what we did to help Ukraine,” he said. Walker also warned that China is intent on retaking Taiwan and that Iran will likely pursue nuclear weapons. He said the countries have created a “mutual transactional relationship,” sharing weapons and technology.
