@jolyonThe Kremlin’s spokesman has finally used the term 'a real war' to describe the conflict in Ukraine, abandoning the long-held official framing of a 'special military operation.' Dmitry Peskov, widely considered the most moderate voice in the Kremlin, made the remark, marking a significant shift in rhetoric. I discussed this development with geopolitical analyst Alex Christoforou, who offered his perspective on the change. #DmitryPeskov

The image shows a screenshot of two men on a video call. The man on the left has short dark hair and wears a black collared shirt, with a black microphone in front of him. The man on the right has short dark hair with a beard and mustache, and wears a dark shirt. The mood/style appears to be a professional or interview-style setting. A notable detail is the text overlay, which reads "MARIO NAWFAL" at the top center. At the bottom right, a black box contains white text that reads "Alex Christoforou" on one line, and "Political Analyst (The Duran)" on the line below.
