ISBN: 9781783342341
Russia’s February 24 invasion of Ukraine came from nowhere…? Felshtinsky and Stanchev’s gripping history of Putin’s attempts to Ukraine reveals his earliest attack came as early as 1999. A bestseller published after Russia annexed the Crimea in 2014, it predicted that the Russian invasion was a matter the Russian army’s 6-year planning cycle and would happen in 2021. They argue how Putin must be resisted in order to avoid a potential nuclear conflict that could drag the world into a global war. An authoritative must-read to understand the causes of the crisis and what to do when.
By Yuri Felshtinsky, Mikhael Stanchev
