Join the Whiskey Bench for an update on the Russ-Ukrainian War. It's been one year since the conflict started, and lots has progressed. The Bench gives a quick overview of events leading into this conflict (check out the Russian/Ukrainian series for in-depth analysis), discuss the Nord stream pipeline sabotage, foreign aid, casualties, and much more. As the conflict continues to escalate, violence intensifies, and more foreign countries get tangled in the mess, expect a return to the topic.
