How do we make sense of the events leading up to the war in Ukraine, and throughout the year of 2022? There have been many news stories, many podcasts and many channels looking at the unfolding events in Ukraine from day to day, In this podcast, however, Jeff Rich steps back from the daily news cycle, and sets out a clear narrative to the whole war, from its beginnings in the internal conflicts in Ukraine in 2014 to the latest missile attacks on Ukraine in l;ate December 2022.

It is the first in a three-part series reviewing the war in Ukraine in 2022, and linking that review to my series on the Black Legend of Russian History.

The second part will assess who is winning the war against four dimensions of the conflict - military war, economic war, information war and diplomatic struggle. How are these conflicts shaping the emerging multipolar world order? This video will be released on 9 January 2022.

The third part will place the conflict in a broader historical context. Is this the start of World War II, or are there other models and stories from history that provide a better framework to compare with events of today. This video will be released on 16 January 2022.
