Historians have calculated that Ukraine is currently fighting its 23rd war for independence against aggressive Russia-Moscow. And this 23rd war has turned out to be the bloodiest.
The book "Over the Abyss. 200 Days of the Russian War" is about the key episodes of the first two hundred days of Ukrainian resistance: a synthesis of events, decisions, achievements, and failures. It attempts to answer the question of how such a large-scale war with unprecedentedly horrific destruction of cities, mass murder, brutal torture and rape of unarmed civilians became possible.
How did it happen that Ukraine managed to resist the Russian invasion and did not fall in three days, as the occupiers themselves and even the special services of Western countries expected?
How did it happen that the "second army of the world" suffered a series of defeats in Ukraine, was forced to flee from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv and partially from other parts of the frontline, and failed to achieve its declared goals after five months of continuous assaults?
How did it happen that the "collective West", whose weak and short-sighted position gave birth to another historical monster and murderer, began to gradually unite around the Ukrainian issue and change its views in support of the heroic nation?
How can we act to reliably defend ourselves against Russian aggression in the future?
And what could be the new security order in the world after the end of the Russian-Ukrainian war, which turned out to be the watershed of the development of modern civilisation?
This book is dedicated to the Ukrainian resistance!
