Day 1,654.

Today, we once again see the extent of Putin’s definition of
“peace”, claiming there are renewed opportunities for dialogue,
then resuming strikes on Ukraine just hours after America’s
envoys leave the country. We go to our correspondent in Kyiv to
hear about the damage there, before turning to the diplomatic
fallout from the weekend, as both sides seek to gain an advantage
from renewed US engagement. And then, two years on from his
passing, we remember the creator of this podcast, David Knowles,
with excerpts from some of our very first episodes, memories of
how the podcast began, and hearing about the impact of last
year’s fundraiser in his memory.
