I am listing this webinar, but its write-up was an embarrassment. For example, this was part of the promotion for the webinar: "This webinar will describe this deadly relationship and how it has evolved to the point where virtually no dissent, no call for peace, no real understanding of declared adversaries is allowed." Actually, as long as you stay away from the dis-information sites, you can get all of the information you want told truthfully.  Of course, in fascist Russia, dissent is prohibited and freedom of the press will not be tolerated. Even a Peace Prize was not enough to protect Dmitry Muratov, whose media outlet was closed, and he was attacked by a pro-Putin fascist.
