Ausstrahlung: Apr 16, 2023

On February 24, 2022, tanks rolled into Ukraine. Bombs fell from the sky. The aggressor was Russia.

While the Kremlin's troops were bogged down in Ukraine, they crisscrossed Russia for three weeks to paint a picture of a society where the culture of violence has been taught since early childhood. Wherever possible, state propaganda succeeded in inverting the notions of good and evil.
