He finds himself in unfamiliar political territory, questioned by some of the country's elite and embarrassed by Ukraine's strikes into Russian cities. Compass Points moderator Nick Schifrin discusses the state of Russian politics with Arkady Ostrovsky. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast.
