In this episode, Latika interviews Tymofiy Mylovanov to discuss the state of Ukraine amid a shifting mood in Kyiv and the US Presidential elections.

My Mylovanov was Ukraine’s former Economy, Trade and Agriculture Minister and is now President of the Kyiv School of Economics. He is a prominent Ukrainian voice online as he argues Kyiv’s case to the world.

Latika and Mr Mylovanov caught up in London. They discussed Ukraine’s efforts to clean up corruption, the bids to join the EU and NATO, why Donald Trump is not necessarily worse for Ukraine than Kamala Harris, why Nato membership won’t be the silver bullet and the United States’ timidity to enforce its sanctions.
