Note: The recording of this podcast occurred earlier in the week and does not reflect recent events.
With the recent events occurring in Ukraine, we are taking a deep dive into the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, various separatist groups, with support from the Russian client-state in Belarus. Using historical context, personal motivations, and our points of view, we hope that we can provide you with an overview of the current conflict and potential escalators to continued fighting.
