Ukraine’s Isolation Of Crimea Puts A Tactical 'Thumb On The Neck Of Putin' | Edward Lucas

Описание: "That is a really serious problem for Putin, because he then has to neglect everything else and neglect all the rest of the front."

Edward Lucas was speaking to John Pienaar on Times Radio Drive. Listen live every Monday-Thursday from 4-7pm.
