Today, delegates from the US and Russia are meeting for another round of talks on the war in Ukraine.

The meeting follows Witkoff’s comments on Tucker Carson’s podcast over the weekend where he said President Putin is “not a bad guy” and questioned Ukraine’s claims to parts of its own country.

Adam is joined by North America editor Sarah Smith and diplomatic correspondent James Landale.

Plus, David Dimbleby tells Adam all about the free market revolution ahead of the release of his new podcast ‘Invisible Hands’.
