Episode overview
In February 2022, Vladimir Putin justified his invasion of Ukraine by the threat to his security posed by the accession of certain border countries to NATO. Since the color revolutions in Georgia and Ukraine, the Kremlin's obsession with not losing its influence in the former Soviet space has taken an additional step with the Ukrainian conflict. [arte]
