Years of resets and appeasement are over. Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is both a war against another state and against democracy. The rubble of Mariupol, the missile attacks on children’s parks, and the massacres in Bucha are the true face of authoritarianism. Perhaps the world woke up to tyranny’s true nature and its ultimate objective. Now is the time for collective global action because authoritarianism is on the rise everywhere. Putin isn’t the only dictator with a murderous regime.
