Revisiting the History Behind Russia & Ukraine

The Untold Story with Martha MacCallum

It's going on three years since Russia invaded Ukraine, creating

incessant conflict in the region that's yet to calm down. However, in a

surprising turn, Ukrainian troops have invaded Russia – pushing through Russian

lines of defense and taking control over more than 25 towns and villages,

according to the governor of Russia's Kursk region.

As major developments occur, Martha revisits her conversation with

Ukrainian author and Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent for The

Wall Street Journal, Yaroslav Trofimov, to discuss the complex

past between Russia and Ukraine that led to Putin’s invasion, how the United

States continues to act in response to the war, and what inspired him to write

his most recent book, ‘Our Enemies Will Vanish,’ which chronicles Ukrainians’

refusal to surrender their independence.
