Summary
Moscow—and much of the rest of the world—expected Ukraine to fall quickly after Russia invaded it. Why hasn't it?
How are the Ukrainian people effectively fighting the Russians, and what could be next? Will Russia invade the Baltic States next, as some have predicted? And are American sanctions enough to weaken Russia?
The Heritage Foundation’s Luke Coffey joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to answer those questions and explain how likely a Ukrainian victory is. Coffey also explains why Ukraine has not yet been made a member of NATO.
We also cover these stories:
- The first wave of foreigners arrives to fight the Russians in Ukraine.
- South Dakota passes legislation banning telemedicine abortions.
- U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy demands data on COVID-19 "misinformation" from several major tech companies.
