Following his announcement that Russia would recognize the breakaway territories of Donetsk and Luhansk as independent, Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered his troops into Eastern Ukraine. Putin claims his troops are entering as peacekeepers, but Western leaders say it’s an invasion and against international law. Freelance journalist Neil Hauer updates guest host Duncan McCue from the ground in Ukraine. We also hear from Andrii Bukvych, charge d'affaires with the Ukrainian Embassy in Canada, about how Ukrainians in Canada are feeling; and Alexander Lanoszka, an assistant professor of international relations at the University of Waterloo, about how Western nations should respond to Putin’s actions.
