The question on everyone’s minds this week is whether the war in Ukraine is any closer to coming to an end. We’ve dedicated the entire Q&A today to the US-brokered peace plan and the details that will determine whether Ukraine and Russia can agree on a number of key issues relating to territory, military numbers and the critical question of security guarantees for Ukraine.
In today’s episode, James is joined by Russia editor Steve Rosenberg, Chief International correspondent Lyse Doucet and Southern and Eastern Europe correspondent Sarah Rainsford to unpack how Ukraine, Russia and Europe may respond to a frantic week of diplomacy.
Today’s episode is presented by James Waterhouse.
The producers were George Dabby and Laura Cain. The technical producer was Ben Andrews. The series producer is Chris Flynn. The senior news editor is Sam Bonham.
