@jolyonThe Kremlin's spokesperson has finally abandoned the phrase "special military operation" and is now calling the conflict in Ukraine what it is: "a real war." For years, Russian officials insisted on using the euphemism, but Dmitry Peskov, often considered the most moderate voice in the Kremlin, has dropped that framing entirely. I discussed this shift with geopolitical analyst Alex Christoforou. #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 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 on the image, which reads "MARIO X NAWFAL" at the top and "Alex Christoforou Political Analyst (The Duran)" at the bottom right. The background of the left side is a plain white wall, while the right side shows a painting and a lamp.
