Russians panic over 'new Operation Spiderweb’ & Trump abandons three-way talks with Putin and Zelensky

Russians panic over 'new Operation Spiderweb’ & Trump abandons three-way talks with Putin and Zelensky

Day 1,262.

Today, as deadline day begins, we discuss how plans for a trilateral summit of Trump, Zelensky, and Putin are already in jeopardy, and assess how the new tariffs on India are already impacting Russia’s increasingly precarious economy. We also cover reports of a new attack similar to Operation Spiderweb, and we do a deep dive into the history of Ukrainian chess, playing an International Master.

'We will celebrate victory with the whole world'

In September 2023, the Ukraine: The Latest team took a trip to Washington DC for a live show at the British Embassy.

The festival promised Ukrainian music, culture, dancing, singing...and even a Cossack beer garden! In this special episode of Ukraine: the Latest, David meets attendees, some of whom were 4th or even 5th generation American Ukrainians, and some who had arrived after fleeing the full-scale invasion.Thank you to St Andrew's for welcoming us: https://www.standrewuoc.org/Charities: We have spoken to many charities this year - from Vans Without Borders, to GP Now, to KHARPP - and we receive many messages from listeners asking for recommendations of charities they can support.
