Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered a major expansion of the country's armed forces, a move being closely followed given the ongoing war in Ukraine. The announcement is being shared and analysed by Ukraine-focused commentators and news outlets, who see the decree as a sign Moscow intends to sustain a prolonged conflict rather than seek a near-term settlement.

Why now: Fresh reports of a large Russian military build-up raise concerns about escalation and the duration of the war in Ukraine.
