General Lord Dannatt says that Vladimir Putin is making a 'twentieth century move' by seeking an incursion into a nearby nation.

The former head of the British Army said that the Russian President had 'achieved an awful lot of what he has set out to achieve', and would risk the lives of many personnel if he risked an incursion into Ukraine.

Lord Dannatt said that Putin may move troops into the Donbas region, but would not invade the rest of Ukraine.
