Families In The Path Of War

As Russia unleashed an assault on Ukrainian cities this Thursday, many families were left with no choice but to pack everything and abandon their homes.

Katya also discusses her reaction to President Putin’s controversial speech from Monday in which he denied Ukraine’s independence and legitimacy.  She explains the differences between Ukrainian and Russian culture and explains why Ukrainians felt so offended by Putin’s remarks given their history.
