Russia's February 24 invasion of Ukraine came from nowhere...? Felshtinsky and Stanchev's gripping history of Putin's attempts to take Ukraine reveals his first deadly attack came as early as 1999. As early as 2015 the authors predicted that the Russian invasion was a matter the Russian army's 6-year planning cycle and would happen in 2021 (not knowing the pandemic would happen). They argue how Putin must be resisted in order to avoid a potential nuclear conflict that could drag the world into a global war. An authoritative must-read to understand the causes of the crisis and what to do when.
YURI FELSHTINSKY is a historian of the Russian secret service with close ties to leading defectors. He co-authored bestsellers Blowing Up Russia (Gibson Square) with poisoned KGB Lieutenant-Colonel Alexander Litvinenko, and The Age of Assassins: How Putin Poisons Elections (Gibson Square). He was a Fellow at the Hoover Institute, University of Stanford, and the first US citizen to receive a doctorate from the Russian Academy of Sciences. In Ukraine, he led the project to decode the infamous ‘Kuchma tapes’ recording the plot to assassinate a leading Ukrainian journalist. He appears regularly as news commentator on MSNBC, NPR, BBC and Sky TV, and in the central-European and British press.

He is the author of 17 books, and an Academician of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. He regularly publishes scholarly articles in peer-reviewed journals, and has lectured in the United States, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan. He lives in Kharkiv with his family.
