To mark the one-year anniversary of the terrible conflict in Ukraine, this lecture will provide a detailed analysis of every phase of the Russian invasion to date. Discover the early miracle of Kyiv and the failure of Moscow to capture any major Ukrainian city in the first weeks of the war. Understand the enemy occupation of the second largest country in Europe and its policy of assimilation and maybe of genocide. Follow the world's response to this act of pure aggression and the geopolitical aspects of the current crisis. Witness the indomitable spirit of resistance and the field ingenuity of the defenders. A sober and disturbing presentation, not to be missed.
