• A deeply reported and remarkably penetrating profile. New York Times Paris bureau chief Roger Cohen with “The Making of Vladimir Putin.”
• The Washington Post’s Paul Sonne and Robyn Dixon with “‘Diminishing returns’: What can change Putin’s course in the Ukraine war?
• Michele A. Berdy, a writer and editor at The Moscow Times, writes for Politico Magazine: “‘The Dots Were All There. We Just Couldn’t Connect Them.’ One of the last American journalists in Moscow recounts how she — and her dog — escaped Russia as Putin’s new iron curtain fell.”
