After a two-hour phone call on Monday, Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin came to very different conclusions about what was agreed. The US said ceasefire negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv would start “immediately.” The Kremlin meanwhile, said there were no deadlines to move towards peace. On this episode the BBC's Russia editor Steve Rosenberg tells us about the reaction to the call in the Russian press. And - as Europe prepares to level further sanctions - Robert Fox, defence editor at the Evening Standard, tells us the West needs to prepare for a longer term conflict.Today's episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko. The producers were Laurie Kalus and Ben Carter. The technical producers were Ben Andrews and Mike Regaard. The series producer is Tim Walklate. The senior news editor is Sam Bonham.

Eșec la convorbirile de pace de la Londra: întâlnirea programată miercuri între cei mai importanți diplomați americani, britanici, francezi și ucraineni a fost anulată în ultimul moment. Ucraina a refuzat să accepte condițiile Statelor Unite, iar secretarul de stat Marco Rubio nu a mai venit în capitala britanică. Presa internațională analizează situația. ”Speranțele unor progrese în negocierile de la Londra s-au năruit după ce reprezentantul SUA, Marco Rubio, s-a retras”, titrează Evening Standard.”Întrucât Donald Trump părea dispus să-i facă concesii semnificative lui Putin pentru a opri conflictul, un oficial european a spus că Rubio și-a exprimat îngrijorarea că Ucraina ar putea reveni la pozițiile sale dure de dinainte, făcând imposibil orice progres”.Potrivit The New York Times, ”vicepreședintele JD Vance a cerut miercuri ca Rusia și Ucraina să fie de acord cu o propunere de pace americană care să „înghețe liniile teritoriale” în războiul de trei ani, să determine Kievul să accepte anexarea Crimeei de către Rusia și să blocheze Ucraina din a deveni parte a NATO.Vicepreședintele Vance avertizase de altfel că Statele Unite se vor „depărta” de procesul de pace dacă cele două părți ar refuza să accepte termenii americani”.”Zelenski a zădărnicit o ambuscadă americană la Londra”, comentează The Independent.”Marco Rubio și-a anulat vizita la Londra pentru discuții de încetare a focului, după ce a reieșit că Zelenski nu va veni. Zelenski nu poate negocia cedarea teritoriului ucrainean, chiar la presiunea SUA. Constituția Ucrainei o interzice. Apartenența la NATO este de asemenea un obiectiv consacrat în același document”.Citeste siNegocierile de pace de la Londra, amânate. JD Vance: Ucraina şi Rusia vor trebui să facă concesii teritorialePe măsură ce discuțiile de la Londra eșuează, Kremlinul susține că „doar SUA rămân angajate”, constată The Kyiv Post.”Kremlinul a răspuns triumfător la vestea că discuțiile de pace cu Ucraina de la Londra s-au prăbușit, spunând că discuțiile cu SUA continuă - dar nu și cu Kievul sau Europa”.Pentru Huffington Post, ”schimbarea bruscă a planurilor de la Londra a venit pe fondul speculațiilor tot mai mari conform cărora SUA vor presa Ucraina să cedeze teritorii Rusiei, ca parte a unui potențial acord de pace - o posibilitate pe care președintele ucrainean Volodimir Zelenski a exclus-o din nou în cursul zilei de marți.În timpul discuțiilor de săptămâna trecută la Paris, oficialii americani au prezentat o propunere care includea permisiunea acordată Rusiei de a păstra controlul asupra teritoriului ucrainean ocupat, potrivit unui oficial european familiarizat cu chestiunea”.Le Monde amintește că ”în ultimele săptămâni, europenii și-au exprimat disponibilitatea de a mobiliza contingente de menținere a păcii, dar au solicitat participarea americanilor, la fel ca și autoritățile ucrainene. Administrația Trump, însă, a spus în repetate rânduri că nu va trimite trupe.Garanțiile de securitate sunt totuși considerate esențiale în ochii Kievului, pentru care războiul dus de Kremlin nu urmărește doar controlul unei părți a teritoriului său, ci și transformarea Ucrainei într-un stat vasal al Moscovei”.

In February 1942, Gordon Cummins, a twenty-eight-year-old Royal Air Force Serviceman, murdered four women and attempted to murder two others over a six-day period in London, leading the press to dub him “The Blackout Ripper.”At a time when the fear of imminent bombings was high and London was on high alert, authorities nonetheless launched an investigation and, quite remarkably, were able to catch Cummins quickly, thereby preventing any further murders; yet the question remains, how was it that a brutally violent killer manage to kill so many people in such a short amount of time and barely attract attention of the police and press?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesBolton News. 1942.

In response to the onset of German bombing raids during World War II, many of England's most vulnerable citizens evacuated or were temporarily evacuated out of urban areas to safer, more rural parts of the country. Those who remained in the cities would ultimately spend years enduring wartime blackouts, periods where the city was plunged into complete darkness in order to prevent German bombers from easily identifying their targets. The blackouts were a significant inconvenience and safety risk for everyone, but for at least one Londoner, they offered a perfect opportunity to enact his darkest fantasies.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesBolton News. 1942.
