How could Trump end the war?
A former Trump aide on how peace might be achieved
What might Donald Trump’s strategy to end the war in Ukraine look like? We speak to Fred Fleitz, a national security official in Donald Trump's first administration who's close to the President's Ukraine and Russia envoy.
We ask him to decode the latest diplomatic noises out of Washington, Moscow and Kyiv, and shed light on what we can expect from Trump’s approach, as well as the prospects of success.
Today’s episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko.
The producers were Nathan Gower and Ryan Johnston. The technical producer was Hannah Montgomery. The series producer is Tim Walklate. The assistant editor is Ben Mundy.
