  • Ukraine the Latest

    I’m a regular listener with my retired Canadian Armed Forces father. This podcast does important work, and we all need to keep this conflict on page 1.

    We, as the western world, owe a debt of gratitude to all Ukrainians that cannot be repaid.

  • Why Never Any Ukraine Losses Figures?

    A great show and really well presented but why is it so unbalanced when it comes to reporting troop losses! We are routinely given thousands per month or per week Russian troop losses but never Ukrainian numbers! Maybe no Ukrainian soldiers are being killed or wounded!😀

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Putin's troops abandon positions as supply lines 'at breaking point' & Russian commander 'assassinated by car bomb'
Q: What is the integration glue that keeps NATO cohesive, and what happens if the US is absent?
The integration glue consists of US leadership, staff expertise, doctrine, and critical C2 and ISR capabilities; without it, Europe's alliance would face longer decision cycles, reduced ability to mass effects, and greater difficulty in sustaining a cohesive, decisive warfighting effort.
Putin's troops abandon positions as supply lines 'at breaking point' & Russian commander 'assassinated by car bomb'
Q: How likely is it that Europe will have to fight without the United States and what would that look like?
Ruben Stewart outlines that Europe would be forced to operate with dispersed, less integrated forces, greater reliance on firepower and fixed positions, and a heavier burden on European defense sovereignty, while NATO would have to compensate for ISR gaps and degraded C2 networks.
Trump tells Putin to ‘make a deal’ at G7 & 'Revenge strike' as Kyiv hits major Moscow oil refinery
Q: What was the big takeaway from the Trump-G7 diplomacy segment?
The hosts suggested there was limited optimism about substantive outcomes from Trump and the summit, with a sense that Ukraine would need to push for more concrete support through other channels while awaiting official moves from allied leaders.
France seizes Russian shadow fleet tanker & Ukrainian drones dominate skies over occupied cities
Q: What are the main reconstruction challenges in Ukraine right now?
Reconstruction hinges on massive funding, material supply, governance to prevent corruption, and coordinating local and national authorities, while ensuring that rebuilt infrastructure serves both current needs and future resilience, including bridges, hospitals, and schools.
Zelensky crashes 'Putin's Davos' with humiliating St Petersburg strike as oligarchs bail out Russian state
Q: What is the strategic significance of striking St. Petersburg during the economic forum?
The host and guests discuss it as a psychological blow intended to expose Russia's vulnerabilities to international attendees while reinforcing Ukraine's long-range reach and signaling that war activities extend into Russia itself.
