Summary

General David Petraeus has been described as the ultimate soldier/scholar. Targeted by Osama Bin Laden when Commander in Afghanistan, whose communications later revealed that “killing him would alter the war”, he became Director of the CIA and today is Chair of the KKR Global Institute and on their board.

In the first part of this absorbing conversation, David Petraeus gives his assessment of the war now, and describes the strategic and tactical failings of Russia compared to the heroic and masterful execution by Ukraine.

He discusses the options ahead, the nuclear threat and the emergence of weapons systems and technologies that are altering the nature of war overall. With clarity and candour he provides a brilliant summary almost one year from the start of the invasion and offers thoughts on the conversation and settlement that might follow.
