Is the Kremlin concerned about Donald Trump’s threat of secondary tariffs in 50 days? Why has President Zelensky overhauled his cabinet? And could other countries follow suit after France reportedly opted out of the NATO purchase of US arms for Ukraine?

Today’s episode is presented by Lucy Hockings and Vitaly Shevchenko.

The producers were Laurie Kalus and Polly Hope. The social producer was Sophie Millward. The technical producer was Dafydd Evans. The series producer is Tim Walklate. The assistant editor is Bridget Harney.
