The Spin

These Russian strikes were a cynical and calculated attack, using 30 missiles and more than 450 drones to target everything that sustains normal life in Ukraine. The civilized world can protect people from this terror, but instead of window-dressing, it requires decisive action. That includes providing Ukraine with additional missile defenses and applying additional sanctions.

Attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure are a direct consequence of the failure of the country's leadership to meaningfully engage in peace talks and thinking they can defeat Russia on the battlefield. These attacks will stop once a more sober position is reached.
