This was confirmed overnight by Moscow’s embassy to Indonesia. At the same time\, we are seeing reports that the Kremlin is withdrawing its troops from Kherson\, the only regional capital it managed to capture since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February. The retreat from Kherson is one of the most serious blows to Russia in Putin’s war. Just a month ago\, he declared that Kherson and three other regions in Ukraine are part of the Russian nation at an event in Moscow’s Red Square. \nJoin us for a discussion with Putin biographers and Russia experts Katja Gloger and Andrew S. Weiss about the war in Ukraine. \n\nJournalist and author Katja Gloger studied Eastern European History and Political Science in Hamburg and Moscow and has an MBA from Purdue University\, Indiana.
