Do we have a Putin problem, or a Russia problem? Why can't everyone see that Putin wants a return to the Russia's Soviet-era sphere of influence? And why is the West not more united in responding to Putin's aggression?
Timothy Garton Ash, Professor of European Studies in the University of Oxford, Professorial Fellow at St Antony’s College, Oxford, and Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, joins our hosts to help answer these questions. He digs into the psychology behind Putin's actions, Europe's ability (or lack thereof) to be a global power, and what the West's next steps should be in dealing with the Russia/Ukraine crisis.
