Rosenberg: Putin shows no sign of stopping the war as Russia doubles down on Ukraine
A foreign policy speech by the Russian president will be keenly watched, but all signs point to the full-scale invasion continuing.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story as Putin and Russia showing no sign of backing off the war, with BBC News making that the headline focus. The Independent instead foregrounds NATO’s response to Putin’s nuclear threat against member nations, and its extract is the only one to mention Moscow vowing to use its “entire arsenal, including nuclear weapons” if threatened.
