  • Consistently and relentlessly excellent

    Keeping up a daily podcast and maintaining its quality over more than four years is a genuine achievement. Even while the news cycle bounces from topic to topic, Ukraine: The Lastest remains focused on this war, the most important event of our generation. Listening to it inspired me to start driving pickup trucks for the Ukrainian Armed Forces from Germany to Ukraine, following in the footsteps of a podcast guest. I even had the pleasure to meet David Knowles briefly in Lviv on a trip to Ukraine... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Exclusive: Inside NATO's secret base preparing for war with Russia
Q: What kind of multinational structure are you considering for post-conflict stabilization or deterrence?
A multinational division with a British contribution at brigade size, composed of multiple battle groups, capable of sustaining a long-term commitment, but the exact size and duration depend on political decisions and allied consensus.
'Longest massive attack': Russia fires 2000 drones and missiles in 24 hours & 60 nations sign historic pledge to 'track down' 20,000 stolen kids
Q: Can you shed light on how these people and entities are chosen for sanctions and what Parliament's role is?
Sanctions are coordinated with international allies, based on intelligence, and are increasingly granular, targeting not just leaders but the people and entities involved in deportation, indoctrination, and misinformation; Parliament's role includes oversight and advocacy for a coherent, multinational approach.
Zelensky former 'right-hand man' charged with corruption
Q: What is the latest with Mr. Yermak and the corruption charges?
The hosts summarize that Yermak is facing money-laundering and corruption allegations tied to luxury property schemes, with Ukrainian authorities publicly naming others connected to the case while avoiding a formal naming of Yermak itself in early stages; they discuss potential political ramifications and the importance of transparency in addressing these charges.
Ukraine ‘vaporises’ Russian helicopters mid-flight behind enemy lines & Putin proposes ‘brief’ ceasefire in Trump call
Q: What was your initial reaction to hearing this news about Russian athletes competing under their flag?
Alexei expresses that it feels unfair and painful because Ukrainians train under bombardments while Russian athletes compete with full national support and visibility, which he believes undermines the sacrifices Ukrainians are making.
Russia’s Victory Day parade ‘stripped of all military kit’ amid Putin ‘paranoia’ & Ukraine hits target 1,500km from its border
Q: What does the reduced Victory Day parade signify for Russia's internal messaging?
It signals a retreat or recalibration by the Kremlin, using a smaller, more tightly controlled event to manage a narrative of strength while avoiding the spectacle that could reveal vulnerabilities.
