Woodward's Book: Putin Went Completely Mad About the "Ukrainian Question" During COVID Isolation.

Legendary journalist Bob Woodward has published a new study on Vladimir Putin that reveals the true motives of the Russian leader in the conflict with Ukraine. Using details from the CIA, Woodward shows that Putin has imperial ambitions and insecurities and seeks to restore Russia's former glory, with Ukraine playing a key role in his strategy. Putin considers Ukraine to be a historical part of Russia, and his statement that "Russians and Ukrainians are one people" reflects his long-term intentions. The book also reveals that the COVID-19 pandemic intensified Putin's nationalist sentiments as he was in prolonged isolation with loyal followers who share his imperial views. These new data confirm that the seizure of Ukraine is not a temporary political strategy but the result of years of reflection and preparation, and the restoration of the empire is Putin's main goal.
