The Russian invasion of Ukraine appears to have stalled. Launched on the 24th of February, the Russian attack seems to have been stopped by a fierce Ukrainian resistance. Have the Russians underestimated the Ukrainians? Where do their plans of attack go wrong? What role did the advanced weapons provided by the West to Ukraine, play in stopping the invasion?

He talks about the front lines in Ukraine, gives his opinion on the state of the Russian army, as well as the backing and military assistance given by Western countries to the Ukrainian government. He expresses his fear that the Russians have already started their 'usual' campaign of bombing cities into submission.
