When is an invasion an invasion?

Amanpour

About this episode

Russia’s Vladimir Putin has ordered his army into the breakaway rebel areas of eastern Ukraine, despite weeks of Russian assurances that they would not invade. Now Germany’s Chancellor Scholz has stepped up, halting the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia for now. The US is also imposing a whole raft of sanctions, while Ukraine’s President Zelensky continues to project calm publicly. Today's show is dedicated to these dramatic developments. Guests include America’s former ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder, Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and US Senator (and one of President Biden's closest confidantes) Chris Coons.
