In this week’s program, Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris are joined by Rich Kozlovich to discuss what is happening behind the scenes with the increasingly erratic Vladimir Putin. Rich, who runs the blog “Paradigms and Demographics,” explains that the Russian president surrounded himself with yes-men, sycophants, and flunkies. Putin demanded loyalty, not truth, and he got what he wanted: loyalty first, competence second, truth in a far distant third place. So practically, no one dared question his vision of conquering Ukraine, which has been a disastrous failure so far.
Join Rich, Jay, and Tom in this week’s episode of The Other Side of the Story to learn what is coming next for Putin, Russia, and the war in Ukraine.
