John Spencer - Putin's Imperialist War has put a Tax on the World - A Massive Economic & Energy Levy

John Spencer is considered one of the leading experts in military  operations in an urban context.   

As winter sets in with a vengeance life is becoming harder in Ukrainian  cities and the supply of power and heat become unreliable from Russian  missile strikes. Russia’s campaign to cripple Ukraine’s power  infrastructure could therefore trigger a new wave of emigration to  Europe, and there is still the threat of a new offensive against Kyiv.  As Russia’s position on the battlefield becomes more precarious, Putin  may resort to terroristic threats, against nuclear facilities, or other  irresponsible actions. Ukraine is on a path to victory, but how long  will it take, and what will be the eventual cost?
