Putin vs. Zelensky: The Russo-Ukrainian War

It is late on the evening of Monday, February 25th, 2022, and Kyiv is burning. The unthinkable has happened. The Russians have invaded Ukraine. Land war has come to Europe, on a scale that has not been seen since the end of the Second World War.

Since this date, Russia has enacted a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, led by its leader, president Vladimir Putin. Ukraine has fought back in turn, led by their president, Volodymyr Zelensky -- defending their homeland and its independent customs, people, history, and language.

Putin vs Zelensky by Ben Thompson chronicles the history of Ukraine and Russia, and charts how we got to this critical moment by closely examining the lives and families of Volodomyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin.
