Support for Kyiv serves the US’s ‘strategic interests’ against security threats posed by Putin’s Russia, analysts say.
Putin relies on a vast network of elites he can co-opt or dupe into supporting his corrupt and authoritarian regime waging a brutal war in Ukraine.
Putin's audacious warning is less a show of legitimate strength, and more a sign that Russia's military is faltering, experts said.
Putin is calling up 300,000 reservists, a move experts said he was desperate to avoid, prompting many Russians to take to the streets in protest.
Russia could conscript more soldiers if Putin formally declared a state of war. But doing so would highlight Russia's vast military failures thus far.
