The Relentlessness of Putin


The unthinkable war brought on by Vladimir Putin doesn’t seem to be coming to an end in the near future despite Putin announcing they are pulling back troops in certain areas. This deception will undoubtedly result in disappointment and little faith that Ukrainians can trust the results of any negotiations with Russia. “The Russian Military reneged on its pledge Tuesday to de-escalate near the capital and Chernihiv in order to increase mutual trust and create conditions for further negotiations.” The news pertaining to Russia and Ukraine has become part of the daily headlines. It can start to feel mundane, and some may feel desensitized to it. However, images such as the one used in this story and the bold headline are visual approaches to the rhetorical aspects the writers choose to utilize. These techniques help guide and persuade the reader to feel a certain way and retain their attention to this horrendous historical event.
