Ukrainecast Podcast
Stephen Fry reads a Ukrainian Christmas story
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ’s only English language programme entirely dedicated to the war in Ukraine and its fallout, Ukrainecast, is your go-to podcast which investigates the biggest issues around the conflict. Could Putin push the nuclear button? How could Donald Trump end the war in 24 hours? What is the price for peace?
The podcast is hosted by Newsnight presenter Victoria Derbyshire and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Monitoring’s Vitaly Shevchenko.
Ukrainecast covers the most important topics around the conflict and speaks to the real people who’ve lived through several years of war. It also brings you agenda-setting interviews with special guests each week such as UK foreign secretary David Cameron, former US secretary of state Mike Pompeo and pre-eminent Russia expert Fiona Hill.
