Why? All he does is human interest stories with no analysis, he's a light weight popular historian, not a researcher, not an original thinker, not an expert on Russia.

If Ukraine joins NATO, US nuclear capable missiles are stationed on Russia's border. Russia kept pleading not to let Ukraine join NATO for years. A few days before the war started, Kamala Harris encouraged Ukraine to join NATO (see her 22nd Feb speech). Putin finally lost patience. The Biden administration knew this was going to happen. They engineered this war.

@IrishTechnicalThinker Like for example banning the teaching of Russian in schools or Russian language in cinemas like the post Maidan government did in Crimea and Donetsk even though almost all of the people in south east Ukraine were Russian speakers?

@thevale2456 The British Empire did die a long time ago but Britain hasn't completely moved on. For example the whole idea that Britain should oppose Russia and get involved in wars all over the world like in the Middle East involves huge costs but no advantage to Britain. It's an arrogant hang over from empire.
