Greetings, Comrades! About a year ago (give or take a few days) the Latvian-American journalist Juris Kaža was on our show, and we talked about the possibility of war, how it would go and made some hopeful and not-so hopeful predictions. So, I asked Juris to come back and look at how it all went. Enjoy! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder . Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/...

Greetings, Comrades! In this episode, I look at the official handbook, published by Russian ministry of defence, that’s intended for the soldiers fighting in the “special military operation” in Ukraine.
