Nato countries boost Ukraine’s defence as Moscow threatens ‘escalation to World War III’

In September 2023, the Ukraine: The Latest team took a trip to Washington DC for a live show at the British Embassy. While in the US, host David Knowles went to a Ukrainian festival at St. Andrew's Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral in Silver Spring, Maryland. 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.
