Vladimir Putin bet against Ukraine's resilience. He also bet against the West's ability to stay united. Now, nearly seven months since Russia invaded Ukraine, Putin appears to be scrambling. How has Ukraine managed to gain momentum on the frontlines? Why has Volodymyr Zelenskyy proven to be such an effective leader? What impact has the United States had on the war?

Dr. Melissa Chakars, Saint Joseph's University Professor and Chair of the Department of History, and Dr. Lisa Baglione, Saint Joseph's University Professor of Political Science, caution that while Russia might seem to be on its heels, the country remains extremely dangerous.
