Why is Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine so focused on the town of Bakhmut? Historian David Glantz, the world’s leading expert on operations in the Donbas during World War 2, offers a historical perspective. You may be surprised to learn that Bakhmut--which then went by a different name--was also a key strategic point in 1942-43. Through the lens of World War 2, retired US Army Colonel David Glantz explains why Bakhmut may be more important than many in the news media assume.
We want to thank David Glantz for sitting down with us as part of an upcoming series on operations around Stalingrad in 1942. When our interview veered off into current events, we knew that this segment was too good and too relevant not to post on the channel immediately!
