Summary

Among Putin’s missteps has been underestimating the support Ukraine would muster. Why is he losing the information war? Meanwhile, Russia faces a raft of sanctions from the West. We analyse the wider impact of those actions, and the moves taken by our Government. Gulnaz Sharafutdinova, of King’s Russia Institute, and Tatton Spiller, the founder of Simple Politics, are this week’s guests.  “Zelenskyy is the most media trained President in history.” - Tatton Spiller  “Since 2014, Putin has portrayed Ukraine as having a fascist government.” - Gulnaz Sharafutdinova  “Where the UK is falling short is sanctions that target individuals.” - Miatta Fahnbulleh  “In Russia, prices on electronics have risen by 30% due to sanctions.” - Gulnaz Sharafutdinova  “Putin is fighting two wars, one in Ukraine and one in Russia.” - Gulnaz Sharafutdinova Find resources to help the Ukrainian people here: https://ukrainewar.carrd.co/  https://www.patreon.com/bunkercast Presented by Ros Taylor with Miatta Fahnbulleh.
