In Moscow's Shadows 39: Putin's latest article on Ukraine and his attempt to place himself on the right side of history - a podcast by Mark Galeotti

Another short, single-segment episode, this time looking at 'On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians,' Putin's latest venture into the role of amateur historian (available in English here). Equal parts history, polemic and paranoia, it says more about VVP's state of mind than anything else, in my opinion.
