Russian units hunted deep within Ukraine & Europe hosts ‘critical call’ with Trump

Day 1,267.

Today, as reports flood in of Russian units being hunted deep within Ukraine, we reveal more details of the operation, and assess its significance for the Trump-Putin summit on Friday. Then we hear more from Adelie about her reporting trip to Ukraine, and discuss a new report into what Europe can do for its long-term strategic autonomy.
