Putin's War: His Motives, Claims, & Lies
with Dmitri Yakovlev
Thursday, September 19 @ 6PM

Color photo of Dmitri Yakovlev
Dmitri Yakovlev, a Muscovite who wholeheartedly supports Ukraine in her fight for freedom, will be at the Library to tell the story of Putin's rise to power and will share interesting facts about Russian propaganda and politics. He welcomes any questions you may have.

About the Presenter: Dmitri is COO and co-founder of a local high-tech company and works with a web development team in Ukraine. In 1991 Dmitri spent two nights on the barricades in Moscow streets standing up for democracy during the coup-d’etat attempt. He is a dual citizen of Russia and the United States, living here since 1993. He has family in the US, Russia, and Ukraine.  Dmitri was in Moscow on the day Putin started the war and saw firsthand the reaction of Muscovites: the unrest, the protests, the panic, the ugly support for Putin and his war.
