How important are motivations when it comes to fighting a war? Is a
'warrior mindset', rather than high level training, carrying the
Ukrainian military through? Fresh from a reporting trip to
Kyiv, former U.S. Marine Elliot Ackerman joins Arthur Snell to give
an insight into the mentality of both the Russian and Ukrainian
forces, and explain how Putin united the Western world. We're
putting out irregular war bulletins covering different aspects of
the Ukraine crisis. You can support our work on the crowdfunding
app Patreon: www.doomsdaywatch.co.uk Resources to help the
Ukrainian people can be found here: https://ukrainewar.carrd.co/
“The Russians have clearly underestimated the Ukrainian
resolve to resist.” “If you’re a Ukrainian you’re fighting
for your family, home and identity. The Russians meanwhile are
fighting for an abstraction.” “The West has conflated
Russia’s nuclear capability with its conventional capability.”
“When Putin makes reference to Russian history, he is mining
grievances which he can use to invade Ukraine.” “Russia’s
spiritual mission is saving the world from the decadence of the
West.” “In the days after Russia invaded Ukraine, we saw the
first bipartisan moment in the U.S. since 9/11.” DOOMSDAY WATCH
