Jacob Rees-Mogg has grilled Colonel Daniel Davis on the possible outcome of a war between Russia and the West, if Ukraine were to lose their conflict.
Colonel Daniel Davis told GBN America: "As a military man, I want to win everything that I can. But in this particular case, as a military man, I can just tell you categorically there is no path to a Ukrainian military victory.
"And to continue going down that path I think is actually antithetical to Western interest, to Ukraine interest, and to blindly go down that path and say we're going to keep trying anyway, is going to get more Ukrainians killed.
"I think it's much wiser to say militarily what is actually possible and what's not, and then let's have policies based on the reality."
Jacob Rees-Mogg then argued: "But isn't that showing incredible weakness for the West, that we can be defeated by Russia because Ukraine is acting as a proxy for the West, whether we like it or not?"
Davis replied: "Yeah, whether we like it or not, we do not have the capacity to win unless NATO gets physically involved with their armies and we go to war with Russia, which of course would be catastrophic and probably lead to nuclear war, that outcome is already ordained."
