A special thanks to @UNITED24media for help researching this video. Check out their video about Putin's nuclear threats
Unlike most of the videos released this year, this video doesn't have footnotes. That's because the script for this video was written before I started footing them. All the sources I use in the video are listed below, and I will try to get footnotes ready for the supercut of this series. But deciphering my script and exactly where I got every bit of info in my notes is gonna take some time.
