A Washington Post opinion piece argues that Vladimir Putin’s recent brutal actions in Ukraine are rooted in a long history of calculated aggression.

The article traces the origins of Putin’s tactics to earlier conflicts and policy decisions, suggesting that the current violence is not an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern.

While the piece does not provide specific casualty figures or weapon details, it emphasizes that the brutality observed in Ukraine is a continuation of a deliberate strategy employed by the Russian leadership over time.
