Nice to see that journalism still exists in this world, have been listening for many months. Well produced and well presented, as usual. A very important subject that the world needs to take a whole lot more seriously.

I have a feeling this is not going to end well for anyone
-
But this is old news about the Georgian law because the president has already vetoed it and it has gone back to parliament.

For God's sake USA, grow some!

GB is going down.

Why were comments about the the 77 year old Russian scientist being sentenced being removed when it is already in the public domain?
-
The German speakers in Russia- were they trapped there after WW2 or did they move when the iron Curtain / Wall came down?

Ukraine could have won in 2022 if the west hadn't been so sluggish.

I would be guided by De Bretton Gordon. The use of nuclear weapons would unleash a different kind of war and be a step far for the west to tolerate. The capability of Ukraine to take them out is being monitored very carefully by the sound of things. Apparently the FPV drones are quite good at taking out tanks. I wish the Ukrainian drone pilots luck.
