Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – one year later; Moldova in Russia's crosshairs; the earthquake in Syria – a disaster on top of a disaster

Guest anchor Bianna Golodryga speaks with Tikhon Dzyadko and Ekaterina Kotrikadze of TV Rain, the exiled Russian TV network, about how Russians are reacting to Putin's war. Then CNA Russia Studies Program Director Michael Kofman and War on the Rocks founder Ryan Evans discuss the current state of the war and what we might expect on the battlefield in the future. Moldovan journalist Paula Erizanu explains what is happening in Moldova, a country that now finds itself in Russia's crosshairs. Plus, Nicole Perlroth, advisor to the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, joins to talk about the less visible Chinese threat: cyber espionage. And finally, Bianna speaks with Wa’el Alzayat, former Senior Policy Advisor to Samantha Power, about the lack of aid entering Syria in the wake of the devastating earthquake and the political forces at play.
