About this sermon
Today is Victory Day in Russia. The former Communist country honors those who were killed in WWII. The patriotic pageantry included a military parade. The festivities especially focus on the victory over Nazi Germany nearly 80 years ago. The then-Soviet Union lost around 27 million in the war. These days, President Vladimir Putin is turning his sights on the West, which he says is trying to start global conflicts. Putin says, "We reject claims of exclusivity by any state or alliance. We know what the exorbitance of such ambitions leads to. Russia will do everything to prevent global confrontation, but at the same time, we will not allow anyone to threaten us. Our strategic forces are always in combat readiness." Senior Fellow for Russian and Eurasian Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, Stephen Sestanovich, joins to share what he made of President Vladimir Putin's remarks and what he had to say about the war in Ukraine. Sestanovich discusses what the strategy is behind the attacks from Russia on the energy infrastructure in Ukraine. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
