Yesterday, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Uzbekistan. While these nations are assumed to be America's chief geostrategic competitors, Russia's faltering invasion of Ukraine has isolated its economy, degraded its military, and undermined its international standing. Former US Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul and Wilson Center's Lucian Kim join Deep Dish to discuss what the war in Ukraine has revealed about Russia's global power and whether it can still be considered a great power.
