Putin Is in Denial as Crimea Runs Out of Fuel

Putin Is in Denial as Crimea Runs Out of Fuel

Published 4 days, 20 hours ago
Description

Putin says Ukraine’s strikes are just an “information operation,” but his own interview points to something very different: fuel shortages, infrastructure damage, air defense gaps, and Crimea needing urgent supply. The question is whether Putin knows how bad this is—or whether he is trapped inside his own version of reality.
