The West waits with bated breath for Vladimir Putin to make his move against Ukraine, with predictions ranging from a calculated bluff to a full-blown invasion. But how does Putin’s military buildup look from Kyiv? As the world sits on tenterhooks, Ukrainians have prepared for war while maintaining as much normalcy as possible. Join Hudson Institute’s Peter Rough as he explores the prospects for Ukraine, its strategy going forward, and the perspective on the ground with three Kyiv-based analysts.
