Fin beretning fra Obama's reset med Rusland. Medvedev som Ruslands præsident der arbejder hen imod demokrati. En kæmpe kontrast til i dag. Putin er tilbage, Medvedev er en drukkenbolt der truer med atomvåben og Trump afmonterer Pax Americana.

The last Presidential election in Ukraine was 6 years ago.
He also ignores Zelenskyy saying he'll hold elections if US make it safe.

Man kan stadig støde på danskere, som har en forestilling om, at al krig foregår på samme grusomme vis og at russerne derfor hverken er værre eller bedre end andre. Militær historiker Antony Bevoor forklarer her, hvorfor den forstilling er forkert.
Ekstrem vold fremmes i Russisk kultur.

He always wanted to keep it quiet, so his handlers in Kremlin don't know about it, but... Help me share this!
