We’re always on the lookout for a great piece that explains a complicated situation, and nothing could be more important and complicated than Vladimir Putin’s Russia. What is up with that guy?

Also, he’s covertly supplying arms to the Taliban to fight the Americans, backing Assad in Syria, and supporting Iran. See a theme here? He’s all about keeping the U.S. off balance, which he’s doing masterfully with Trump, playing the American president for all he’s worth.
