Episode Details

Day 1,454.

Today, we bring you the latest from Geneva, Switzerland, as a new round of peace talks between Ukraine, Russia and the United States gets underway. What is the diplomatic temperature between Kyiv, Moscow and Washington – and are we any closer to a ceasefire? Meanwhile, as strikes continue on both Ukrainian and Russian territory, we present a special episode focused on the next generation of Ukrainian students: their hopes and aspirations, and how they view the political decisions shaping their country’s future.
