Putin’s top 3 lies: from Ukraine to the Second World War | Defence in Depth

When Russia invaded Ukraine last year, the myth of its military capabilities in the European theatre – still potent thanks to mental images of Red Army tanks storming across Eastern Europe in the dying days of World War Two – was shattered overnight. But we should not have been so surprised. For years, Russia has distorted its history, contorted it so profoundly, that we, just like millions of ordinary Russians, can no longer measure modern Russia according to the most important metric: reality. In this episode of Defence in Depth, Francis Dearnley, The Telegraph’s Assistant Comment Editor, examines three of the most significant corruptions of historical truth frequently proclaimed in Putin’s Russia, and their implications. #putin #stalin #russia #lies #history #geopolitics Find our Defence in Depth playlist here:    • Defence in Depth | The Telegraph   For our podcast Ukraine: The Latest, visit:    • Ukraine: The Latest | Podcast | The Telegraph   Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
