Laura Kuenssberg speaks to former British Prime Minister, Boris
Johnson, and former head of the British Armed Forces, Admiral Sir
Tony Radakin, about the war in Ukraine.

Johnson was in Downing Street four years ago, when the Russian
invasion of Ukraine began. As one of the driving forces behind
the West’s initial response, he has been critical of the slowness
of allies in providing support to President Zelensky, which
Johnson says has cost lives.

The two men believe the conflict could have been prevented
altogether if Western allies had paid more attention to Putin's
increasing aggression and annexation of Crimea in 2014. The
Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world,
from all over the world. The best interviews from the BBC,
including episodes with the Mayor of Kyiv, Vitali Klitschko,
Iranian author Azar Nafisi, and the President of Somalia, Hassan
Sheikh Mohamud. You can listen on the BBC World Service on
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 0800 GMT. Or you can listen to
The Interview as a podcast, out three times a week on BBC Sounds
or wherever you get your podcasts.
