The UK's former spy chief, Sir Alex Younger, said Vladimir Putin will be replaced in "due course." Younger said he expects Putin's replacement to be even more right-wing and extreme. Sir Alex Younger, who served as MI6 chief from 2014 and 2020, appeared on BBC Newsnight on Tuesday and was asked by presenter Kirsty Wark whether Putin could be overthrown. Wark suggested to Younger that Putin's replacement might be more extreme and further to the right. He will be replaced, but will be replaced by critics from the right."
