Ukraine war may be beginning of third world war: George Soros

The Hindu  

Billionaire investor George Soros has warned that Russia's invasion of Ukraine may be the beginning of the third world war and that the civilisation may not survive this war. Mr. Putin informed Mr. Xi of a “special military operation” in Ukraine, but it is unclear whether he told Mr. Xi that he had a full-scale attack on Ukraine in mind, Mr. Soros said. In the meantime, Mr. Soros said Mr. Putin's so-called "special military operation" didn't unfold according to plan. "Mr. Putin expected to be welcomed in Ukraine as a liberator; Mr. Xi Jinping is sticking to a Zero COVID policy that can't possibly be sustained," he added. Mr. Soros also said Mr. Xi Jinping is bound to fail as giving Mr. Putin permission to launch an unsuccessful attack against Ukraine didn’t serve China’s best interests.
