Day 22 – where do we go from here? Two decisions
Dear friends, I think that three weeks into this special military operation we can take a few moments to pause and think about where we are and where we go from here.

The Russian ‘denazification’ PR disaster: How, why and what to do
by Ramin Mazaheri for the Saker blog Maybe it’s worked in Russia, but a military operation in Ukraine based on “denazification” has been a total public relations disaster everywhere else. Quite simply: Russia should have known that the use of the word “Nazi” totally shuts down any discussion in the West. Russia is waging a new type of military operation but they lazily or foolishly thought that “denazification” was a
