Description
It’s an event that Russians, Ukrainians and the rest of the world have
been thinking about, but one that many people didn’t think would

Ryan Lizza is a Playbook co-author for POLITICO.
Natalia Gumenyuk is a reporter in Kiev.
Uliana Pavlova is a freelance journalist in Moscow.
Kara Tabor is a producer for POLITICO audio.
