Putins strategy explained@ 2:36 - 4:00 he explains how stalin and the bolsheviks carved up recklessly traditional russian , polish , german and hungarian lands to create the ukraine .

It is a well thought out speech covering russias history and well worth the listen/read for anyone confused about this mess
