Three interesting videos

Three short videos from a recent prestigious Oxford University Debating Society debate: "Is Putin building an empire?" The presentations naturally focus on the Russian-Ukrainian war..

to be honest with you, I found these 3 very interesting - but the other 3 debaters were just as interesting

I think the "for the proposition" side had the better arguments

Andriy Shevchenko was quite good

But I think everyone agreed that the best line came from Mr. Swain, who argued "against"- "not even Putin knows what he's doing."
