Putin’s self-deception is driving Russia towards operational disaster | Keir Giles
About this episode
Keir Giles discusses how Putin's self-deception is leading to operational failures in the Russian military and complicating the possibility of a ceasefire.
“If you have a command structure that thinks Russia is already in charge of a piece of territory and sends more people in, they die in their hundreds.” Putin’s self-deception is causing operational setbacks for the Russian military and making the prospect of a ceasefire even more remote, says Keir Giles.
