Seems like a great article, and I followed the war (maybe we should call it genocide & imperialism and not war) pretty closely for maybe 3 years or so. Why's does this the author talk about dates and not include years?

> ("At an international conference on April 26 at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, General Milley introduced Mr. Reznikov and a Zaluzhny deputy to Generals Cavoli and Donahue.")

Is this 2021? 2022? Seems like a nitpick, I know but like, why make your readers work?



April, 2022. In the NYTimes app version of the article as you scroll down information about the "part" you are on stays at the top like a sticky nav to give better context. So for where your quote comes form it says "Part 1 February - May 2022"


Aww, that might not have displayed in the reader view. Blaming the author instead of the paywall workaround lol. Sorry.


Not at all! If I were a journalist I would not want my reporting to rely on external formatting and styling to convey key information.


There’s a year in here (2023) that I’m pretty sure they meant 2024 and it was a typo. It was talking about the election, but the context makes zero sense in 2023
