A year in to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, it’s become clear that the key to understanding the war is understanding the man behind it: Vladimir Putin. Keir Simmons takes an in-depth dive into Putin’s history, interviews some of his closest confidants, and the man himself, to better understand how we got here, and where Putin may be taking his country — and the world.

Russia is land of terrorists, empire of lies. Putin is saboteur, butcher suffering from Narcissistic Personality Disorder- NPD.
Mr Putin MUST win this war. Unless you want the world run by the WEF and Uncle Sam’s worthless paper dollar.
I always wonder this and other reporters for big news companies such as this one. Whether they are a satanist. Because of the red business tie.
Putin the carpet skater….hiiiiii BOEM.
This is a demonstration, proof that religion, all religions, are obsolete garbage. God is fiction in every religion, culture, and language, every second of every day, 365.
Hitler
Which one of his 40 impersonators did those walks the past couple years??
Conspiracy theory 😆, yeah like our Country never meddles or influences who is the lead countries around the world, we don't invade other countries to take their resources right, did Syria ring a bell 😆. This documentary just make me realize Putin is more straightforward, less war monger, and less of a liar than any of our presidents in America who are liars, warmongers, and shady. Thanks for opening my eyes.
putin actually speaks good english
Why don't you tell us about all the Russians activities and journalist murdered in Ukraine in the last two decades?
Western propaganda as usual. EU dictatorship banning Russian media in order to have only one narrative to be listened while brainwashing their citizens with BS
Brandums war. Nato expanding east
Listen I know times are tough King but you can stop scrolling, geopolitics can take a break for now, what you need to do is to unwind with some pure therapeutic authentic medieval combat, back to the days of old when wars were fought with sticks and who banged whos princess.

Why the cut out putins government vans bringing people to the rally 🤔 😒 🤣🤮💯
If anything Invading Ukraine reestablished to anyone who may have been naive enough to think that the US didn't lead the world that it very much still does and likely will until the end of times
The Ukraine war has been building for years. First, since NATO started expanding towards Russia's border. NATO was created for one reason, to prevent the expansion of the USSR which dissolved in 1991. Russia has warned many times that NATO nations won't be tolerated on its border as it is rightfully viewed as a national security threat. Which is the same reason the US has used to invade and support coups in many other sovereign nations, Hawaii 1893; Cuba 1933; Afghanistan 2001; Iraq 2003; Libya in 2011; to name a few. Most recently, Ukraine taunted Russia by declaring it would join NATO. NATO, the EU and US played along waiting for the war to start before they saying they wouldn't admit Ukraine to NATO.
The other cause of this conflict is the Ukraine government's repeated persecution and military attacks on the Russian people of the Donbas region of Ukraine since at least 2014, thousands have died. Russia supports those people and again warned what would happen if the oppression and murder of those people continued. The people of Luhansk and Donetsk and the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions have voted to become part of Russia.
The leaderships of the US, EU and NATO are dishonest, dishonorable, arrogant and greedy; the type that would hold an opponents arms while beating them up or just shoot them in the back. They are a disgrace to any citizen of their country who has principles and morals.
Red square is an iconic looking place.
The positive effect this has had on US news outlets is that domestic squabbling seems to be at its lowest point in at least a decade.
Hahaha it is really sad to be a journalist in these days! I wonder why comedians have more audience that main stream media with an outdated agenda!
Everyone in a millitary position knew this would happen for years , every political party has forgotten war and simply ignored the possibility that it could happen to focus on sunshine and rainbows.
Putin saw the window that has been growing for years and took the shot, weve been to naive to face the facts therefore we pay the price of our ignorance in blood.
