My Front Line

Beschreibung

This collection is like an explosive chronicle of the empire’s decline from within.
This collection is like an explosive chronicle of the empire’s decline from within. The author is a journalist who fled Russia for Ukraine back in 2007, when the Putin regime was only beginning to gain momentum. His texts are prophetic: even then, he warned of what has now become a hellish reality. Although these essays were previously published—mainly on the informational and analytical portal Zaxid—they have not lost their relevance and have effectively become a document of the era. Russian aggression, moral corruption, an indifferent West, the future of Ukraine and Europe—all are explored in these writings, which read like predictions of disaster. It is a document of the epoch: war, fear, propaganda, and the staggering cost of resistance. Most importantly, these texts provide a clear and alarming vision of what Russia will look like in the near future.
