Russia’s War on Ukraine

Today Russian troops started to shell Mariupol. For an almost minute-to-minute account I suggest to follow Ukraine@war on twitter or visit his blog. Most probably a heavier attack will follow the coming days. To refresh your mind we will program our interviews with Dmytro and the lecture by Timothy Snyder. We spoke with Dmytro all through last year, and hopefully we can connect again in a couple of days. In these interviews you hear the different stages Ukraine went through, from the demonstrations on Maidan square up to a war…
