Ukraine Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi

Listen Later

Four-star General Oleksandr Syrskyi has commanded the armed forces in Ukraine since February. Before that, he helmed his country's ground forces as Russia began its full-scale invasion in early 2022, when he led that initial battle for Kyiv and pushed Moscow's forces out of the capital. Since his elevation to the top of the military seven months ago, there have been a series of strategic challenges and victories for Ukraine. Among them, the surprise assault on the Russian region of Kursk, and the current fears that the key city of Pokrovsk could fall imminently. Christiane sat down with him in Ukraine for his first on-camera interview.  

Also on today's show: Kris Brown, President of Brady, a non-profit combatting gun violence and its causes; author Michael Lewis; Washington Post reporter Missy Ryan
