"I think he's decided to double-down and to try to 'Groznyfy' the great cities of Ukraine in the way that he's always tried to do - and I think that's a tragic mistake," he said.
But in a sit down interview with Newsnight’s Political Editor Nick Watt, he said he believes Ukraine “can certainly win this war”.
