Transforming Warfare: The Impact of Drones in the Russia-Ukraine Conflict

American Presidents have been trying to manage Russian President Vladimir Putin since the beginning of this century.

Barack Obama and Putin sat down together 9 times.

Joe Biden met with Putin only once.

This time he’s hoping to finally end the war in Ukraine.
