Day 817.Today is a bank holiday in the United Kingdom, so we pre-recorded an interview with one of our most requested guests: Professor Sir Lawrence Freedman of the department of War Studies at King's College London. A world-renowned expert on international history and strategic theory, he is a well-known commentator on security issues, and the author of many books, including most recently: ‘Command: The Politics of Military Operations from Korea to Ukraine.’David Knowles sat down with him to discuss which country has the strategic initiative in the war, the ways the battlefront is likely to evolve over the coming months, and what experts have got right, and wrong, about the way the war has progressed.Subscribe to The Telegraph: telegraph.co.uk/ukrainethelatestEmail: ukrainepod@telegraph.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

Day 814.Today, we discuss whether more Ukrainian strikes in Crimea and Russia have pushed Putin to start talking about negotiations, and hear of another senior Russian military official sacked, in what is starting to look like a purge of the top echelons of Russia’s defence establishment.Contributors:Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor, Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Francis Dearnley (Assistant Comment Editor). @FrancisDearnley on X.With thanks to Jen Stout (Freelance Journalist and author) @jm_stout on X.  Her new book 'Night train to Odesa' is out now:  https://birlinn.co.uk/product/night-train-to-odesa/Articles Referenced:'Exclusive: Putin wants Ukraine ceasefire on current frontlines' (Reuters)https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/putin-wants-ukraine-ceasefire-current-frontlines-sources-say-2024-05-24/'Ukraine starts sending convicts to fight Russia' (The Telegraph)https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/05/23/ukraine-starts-sending-convicts-to-fight-russia/'Migrating eagles are avoiding war-torn Ukraine' (The Telegraph)https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/05/20/greater-spotted-eagle-avoid-ukraine-russia-war/Subscribe to The Telegraph: telegraph.co.uk/ukrainethelatestEmail: ukrainepod@telegraph.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
