Pentagon: Putin Being “Misinformed” By A...

CNN
About this episode

The Pentagon says, "we believe that Putin is being misinformed" about Russian military performance in Ukraine and the impact of sanctions on Russia’s economy. That, as Ukrainian cities continue to be bombarded despite Russia’s claims of de-escalation, with heavy shelling reported around Kyiv over the past 24-hours, and Chernihiv’s Mayor saying his city has come under a “colossal attack”.

Plus, Ukraine’s President Zelensky says “negotiations with Russia are "only words", Chris Rock makes his first public remarks on the Will Smith slap, the Biden Administration pledges $500 million in budgetary aid to Ukraine, and how Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is fueling an international hunger crisis.
