The event
In the early hours of 24 February 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine, marking an escalation in the Russo-Ukrainian War which had begun in 2014 with the annexation of Crimea.
As the eyes of the world continue to be fixed on Ukraine, General Sir Adrian Bradshaw shares his unique security perspective on the conflict that heralds a turning point in relations between Russia and Nato.
