DAVOS, Switzerland: If Ukraine does not defeat Russia, Moscow's victory would not end well for Europe, Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Thursday, as he warned Russia might not be contained in its neighbor. He was speaking on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in the Swiss Alpine resort of Davos, where the war in Ukraine has dominated discussions. "There's a chance that Russia might not be contained in Ukraine," he warned. One way Europe could do more on defense was "common procurement; we could procure things that are needed to, to defend Europe," the minister said. Landsbergis, however, welcomed the many discussions, including at very high levels, about Ukraine during the forum.
