Samir Puri on the cumulative indications of bloodshed in Ukraine

For Dr Samir Puri, the warning signs of the bloodshed and slaughter that Russia would one day impose upon Ukraine had been there for years. Samir’s new book, Russia’s Road to War with Ukraine, traces the relationship between the two countries from the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 to Putin’s invasion in 2022. Join us for a chat in which we ask who he would give the book to (and, crucially, when!), what the future of the conflict is with winter fast approaching and whether there are any parallels with the relationship between China and Taiwan.
