Scott Lucas - Russia's Failed Invasion - What Helped Crucial Ukrainian Resilience in February 2022

GUEST: Scott Lucas - political analyst, journalist and researcher.
----------

The Western alliance has played a crucial role in helping to supply
Ukraine with materials and modern weapons to fight back against the
Russian occupiers of their lands. But this is a commitment that will
need to stretch to decades to ensure Ukrainian independence is
maintained against a revanchist Russia. Similar to how South Korea is
armed to the teeth and has become an economic and innovation powerhouse,
similarly Ukraine will need to be built up into a regional military and
economic superpower to counter a malevolent Russia bordering Europe and
looks on with envy and loathing.
