If you want a clear source, use this https://www.army.mod.uk/news-and-events/news/2018/05/new-chief-of-the-general-staff-appointed/. It ignores his Director UKSF command naturally but all else is correct.

In his speech at the RUSI Land Warfare Conference in June 2018, Carleton-Smith said that British troops should be prepared to "fight and win" against the "imminent" threat of hostile Russia. [1] [2] [3] Carleton-Smith said: "The misplaced perception that there is no imminent or existential threat to the UK - and that even if there was it could only arise at long notice - is wrong, along with a flawed belief that conventional hardware and mass are irrelevant in countering Russian subversion...". [3] [4]
In a November 2018 interview with the Daily Telegraph, Carleton-Smith said that "Russia today indisputably represents a far greater threat to our national security than Islamic extremist threats such as al-Qaeda and ISIL. ... We cannot be complacent about the threat Russia poses or leave it uncontested." [5] "The physical manifestation of the Islamist threat has diminished with the complete destruction of the geography of the so-called Caliphate." [6]
