Two drones explode over the Kremlin. Giant fuel depots blow up in occupied Crimea. Mysterious detonations hit several cities deep in Russia. Are these the first attacks in Ukraine’s much anticipated spring counteroffensive? Will this campaign finally start liberating Ukraine from Vladimir Putin’s bloody invasion? And why should Americans care about yet another war in a faraway nation?
Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta joins Fernando for a reality check — is Ukraine and its allies on the brink of victory or facing a long, costly war with no obvious end in sight?
Secretary Panetta has been on the front lines of American government for decades, serving as a congressman, White House chief of staff, and CIA director. He is now a member of the Council for Responsible Social Media, a project of Issue One.
