Eight weeks ago it still seemed almost unthinkable that Russia would mount a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since then the reality of the war - and the way it has been waged - has shocked and appalled the world. Mishal Husain and a panel of expert guests ask what it would take for NATO to confront Russia directly over Ukraine.
Guests:
General Sir Richard Shirreff who served in the Gulf War, Kosovo and Iraq while in the British Army, before becoming NATO’s Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe between 2011 and 2014.
Orysia Lutsevych, head of the Ukraine Forum at Chatham House.
BBC Middle East Editor Jeremy Bowen, who has been reporting from Ukraine for weeks.
And we're joined from Washington by Douglas Lute, former US Ambassador to NATO.
