World Review from the New Statesman

Does Russia still intend to invade Ukraine?


Listen Later

While the US and UK predicts that an invasion of Ukraine is imminent, the recent intensification of Western military aid to Ukraine has raised the stakes for Russia. Emily Tamkin and Katie Stallard in Washington, DC, are joined by Ido Vock in Berlin to discuss the latest flurry of diplomacy and what might happen next.

 

Then in You Ask Us, a listener asks what parallels we can draw with the situation in Ukraine with what happened in Afghanistan, and if that is helpful to make sense of it all.
