Next Year in Moscow

When the shelling of Ukraine began a year ago, free-thinking Russians faced a fateful choice: lie low, resist or flee. Hundreds of thousands decided to leave. Because for them the war meant Russia itself had lost its meaning and its future. Now they have to rebuild their lives and their hopes for Russia from exile. Can they get their country back? In this seven-part series, The Economist s Arkady Ostrovsky travels across Europe and the Middle East to find out. The answer may hold the key to ending the war.
