James and Al are joined by PBS NewsHour’s foreign affairs and defense correspondent Nick Schifirin to lay out Russia’s goals for its war in Ukraine. They also break down the balance of power between the two militaries, and highlight Zelensky’s appeals to the world compared to Putin’s authoritarian politics of control. Is there a risk of unconventional weapons being used as the conflict continues? And what does the off ramp look like?
