Putin aims to break Ukraine by terrorizing civilians
Original: Putin aims to break Ukraine by terrorizing the civilian population
Atlantic Council analysts argue that Vladimir Putin's strategy in Ukraine centers on terrorizing the civilian population to break the country's will to resist. The piece frames sustained strikes on cities and infrastructure as a deliberate campaign against ordinary Ukrainians rather than purely military targets, reigniting debate over Western responses and support for Ukraine's air defenses.
Why now: Ongoing Russian strikes on Ukrainian cities keep civilian targeting at the center of the war debate.
