Lara Logan exposing the truth about Russia and Ukraine

ED HENRY (HOST): Lara, great to have you this morning. I wanted to start with this breaking news overnight that it appears – and there you are; you popped up for us. It's so great to see you – The Daily Mail has a very interesting story that's saying that Vladimir Putin essentially may be running out of bullets, that it might have a week and a half, two weeks max. He's losing warplanes, tanks, all the rest of it. He obviously went into this thinking he was gonna bulldoze his way through Ukraine.

Russia is using the presence of neo-Nazis in Ukraine as a pretext for war, but the West is sweeping it under the rug.

President Vladimir Putin has claimed that he ordered the Russian invasion of Ukraine to “denazify” its government. Western officials, such as former US Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul, have called this pure propaganda, insisting, “There are no Nazis in Ukraine.”

In the context of the Russian invasion, the post-2014 Ukrainian government’s problematic relationship with extreme right-wing parties and neo-Nazi groups has become an incendiary element on both sides of the propaganda war, with Russia exaggerating it as a pretext for war and the West trying to sweep it under the rug. 

The reality behind the propaganda is that the West and its Ukrainian allies have opportunistically exploited and empowered the extreme right in Ukraine, first to pull off a coup amidst anti-government protests in 2014 and then...
