Coffee or Die Magazine‘s Nolan Peterson appeared on Fox News to discuss his front-line reporting in Ukraine on Wednesday, Jan. 26, the same day that the US State Department issued its strongest warning yet for US citizens to leave the country. Peterson has lived in Ukraine for eight years, reporting on the conflict there with Russian forces, and has embedded with numerous Ukrainian military and paramilitary units in recent months as they prepare for a possible Russian invasion.
“I’m from Florida and the best analogy I can give you for the mood here right now are those days before a hurricane,” Peterson told Fox hosts Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino. “You have to decide whether you are going to stay or whether you are going to go.”
Peterson was on Fox to discuss his recent Wall Street Journal op-ed on likely civilian resistance within Ukraine and to report on military preparations. Russian forces are in the midst of massing what is estimated to be 100,000 troops on Ukraine’s borders with both Russia and Belarus, positions that essentially encircle northern Ukraine, including the capital of Kyiv. The Belarus-Ukraine border is about 80 miles from Kyiv.
