**Description:**
"Putin's Prisoner: My Time as a Prisoner of War in Ukraine" is a gripping and harrowing account of Aiden Aslin's experiences as a soldier in the Ukrainian marines and his subsequent capture and imprisonment during Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Aiden Aslin's journey began when he joined the Ukrainian marines in 2018, motivated by a strong desire to defend his adopted homeland from the looming threat of Russian aggression. In February 2022, as Russia launched a full-scale offensive, Aiden and his unit found themselves stationed on the front lines in Mariupol.
Trapped at a steelworks facility in Mariupol after enduring a month-long siege and running low on essential supplies, Aiden became part of a mass surrender involving over a thousand Ukrainian troops in April 2022. However, his ordeal was far from over.
Due to his British passport, Aiden was singled out by his captors. He endured interrogations, torture, physical violence, and propaganda indoctrination. He was subjected to a sham trial conducted by a kangaroo court and ultimately faced a death sentence. Throughout this horrific ordeal, Aiden clung to any shred of hope for survival, even though he believed he would be executed.
"Putin's Prisoner" provides a firsthand and unfiltered account of Aiden's time fighting in the war orchestrated by Russian President Vladimir Putin, his six months in Russian captivity, and his unwavering determination to protect the freedoms of the Ukrainian people. The book sheds light on the catalog of abuses of international law that Aiden witnessed and experienced and offers a deeply personal perspective on the human cost of conflict.
This book is a compelling and essential read for those interested in understanding the individual stories and sacrifices that have emerged from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, highlighting the resilience and courage of people caught in the midst of geopolitical turmoil.
