With three FIU (financial intelligence unit) leadership positions under his belt, and much more besides, Daniel Thelesklaf shares his varied and valued experience in tackling financial crime. In this latest episode of the STR podcast, host Tom Keatinge catches up with Daniel Thelesklaf, long-time friend of RUSI's Centre for Finance and Security. Through FIU leadership positions from Liechtenstein to Germany via Switzerland, and roles as the Moneyval president, the Director of the UN University Finance Against Slavery and Trafficking programme and, now, Egmont vice-chair (not to mention starting life as a compliance officer in the Swiss banking industry), there is not much Daniel has not seen in the financial crime world. Here he shares the lessons he has learned.

Trump's revived 'America First' policy is reshaping US-Latin America ties, testing regional stability, governance and the balance between Washington, Beijing, and Moscow. Nearly a year into his second term, President Trump has revived the 'America First' doctrine with a renewed focus on the Western Hemisphere. As Washington prioritises border security, transactional diplomacy and strategic competition with China and Russia, Latin American governments are reassessing how to navigate a more conditional and bilateral US approach. In this episode of Global Security Briefing, Neil Melvin is joined by Dr Carlos Solar, Senior Research Fellow for Latin American Security at RUSI. The discussion explores: · How the Trump Administration is reshaping US engagement with Latin America. · The effects of aid cuts, tariff threats and bilateral deals on regional governance. · Shifts in defence and security cooperation under the new US strategy. · How Latin American governments are responding to a tougher, more transactional Washington. · The challenge of balancing US pressure with growing Chinese and Russian influence.

This week, Moscow's top general has claimed that Russia has tested a low-flying experimental nuclear-powered cruise missile. It is said to be powered by a nuclear reactor and is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead with a potentially unlimited range. Russia calls it Burevestnik, Nato have codenamed it ‘Skyfall', and others have said it's a ‘tiny flying Chernobyl'. Western experts have previously cast doubt over missile's strategic value and Russian claims of having successfully tested it.But how dangerous is it?Victoria is joined by the BBC's Ben Tavener and Catriona Perry in Moscow and Washington respectively, plus Dr Justin Bronk who is a senior research fellow for Airpower and Technology at the military think tank RUSI.Plus, after Trump shifts his positions on sanctions, we look to the future to ask how the US president could potentially put more economic pressure on Russia.Today's episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire.

Summit Trump Putin v Budapešti sa nekoná. Rusko na Ukrajine bombarduje škôlky, bytovky a pred zimou opäť ničí ukrajinskú energetiku. Putin už vo vojne stratil milión ľudí, dohoda o mieri je však v nedohľadne. Spojené štáty aj Európska únia preto pritvrdzujú v sankciách proti Putinovmu režimu.V čo ešte Putin dúfa a ako ďaleko je schopný zájsť? Prečo stále útočí na deti a nevinných civilistov? A ako sa darí zasahovať v hĺbke Ruska Ukrajincom? Čo budú pre Putina znamenať nové európske a americké sankcie na jeho ropné giganty? Môže slabá ruská ekonomika koniec vojny urýchliť? A prečo Slovenská vláda hovorí o mieri, no nákupmi ruskej ropy a plynu sami pomáhame Putinovu vojnu financovať? Vytvorí Robert Fico s Viktorom Orbánom a Andrejom Babišom v Únii protiukrajinský blok?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s vedúcim výskumníkom, analytikom Slovenskej spoločnosti pre zahraničnú politiku a profesorom na Prešovskej univerzite Alexandrom Dulebom.

Is the UK government complicit in the destruction of Gaza? That's the assertion in the new book by journalist and polemicist Peter Oborne, with both Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak under fire for backing what he calls Israel's “criminal assault” following the Hamas attack of October 7.What's more, he says, the British media played its part too: colluding with the government as well as misrepresenting or under-reporting those voices opposed.On this episode of the Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy speaks to Peter Oborne and Edmund Fitton-Brown, a former UK ambassador to Yemen, previously a UN monitor, and now a senior fellow at the foreign affairs think-tank RUSI.

Corruption defines both the perception and reality of government, eroding trust and even threatening national security. Today, the safeguards meant to keep our government accountable are failing. From the mass firing of inspectors general to congressional stock trading and Supreme Court ethics scandals, abuses of power are weakening public trust and raising fears that the U.S. could slide toward kleptocracy.In this episode, host Simone Leeper speaks with Mark Lee Greenblatt, former Inspector General of the U.S. Department of the Interior; Jodi Vittori, Georgetown University professor and expert on corruption and national security; and Kedric Payne, Vice President and General Counsel at Campaign Legal Center. Together, they trace America's long fight against corruption — from the founders' earliest fears to Watergate reforms — and examine how today's failures of accountability threaten American democracy. The episode closes with solutions for restoring integrity, eliminating conflicts of interest and rebuilding trust in American government. Timestamps:(00:05) — Why did Trump fire 17 inspectors general?(07:36) — How has corruption shaped U.S. history?(11:14) — What reforms followed Watergate?(18:22) — Why does corruption feel worse in daily life now?(23:01) — How did Trump weaken watchdog offices and ethics enforcement?(28:47) — Why does congressional stock trading undermine trust?(33:58) — What do Supreme Court ethics scandals reveal?(39:59) — Could the U.S. slide toward kleptocracy?(46:04) — How does corruption threaten national security?(56:57) — What reforms could restore accountability and integrity? Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

Cyber attacks are on the rise and the threats impact us all. Which countries are leading these moves and how can we combat them? Britain's National Cyber Security Centre says that the UK faced four ‘nationally significant' attacks a week on average in the past year. It adds that China poses a "capable" cyber threat, "targeting a wide range of sectors and institutions across the globe', and highlights the activities of Russia, Iran and North Korea. In today's episode Gavin Esler talks to James Sullivan, Director of Cyber and Tech at RUSI, the Royal United Services Institute to discuss scale and nature of cyber attacks, and assess how governments can respond. • This episode of This Is Not A Drill is supported by Incogni the service that keeps your private information safe, protects you from identity theft and keeps your data from being sold.

Can Taipei maintain stability amid great power competition? Taiwan is facing rising Chinese pressure and increasingly uncertain US backing. As cross-strait tensions intensify, the central question for Taipei is whether it can maintain its delicate status quo. In this episode of Global Security Briefing, Neil Melvin is joined by Dr Philip Shetler-Jones, Senior Research Fellow for Indo-Pacific Security at RUSI, to discuss Taiwan's strategic outlook following the Taipei Security Dialogue. - The discussion explores: - China's evolving strategy towards Taiwan, from military build-up to grey zone coercion. - The state of US policy under President Trump and its implications for deterrence. - How Taiwan's government and society are responding to growing uncertainty. - The prospects for maintaining the cross-strait status quo amid intensifying geopolitical rivalry.

Obrambni izdatki nikakor nočejo z jedilnika, kar pomeni, da še kako vplivajo nanj. Zato o Parlamentarni skupščini Nata, ki jo je gostila Ljubljana. Podrobnosti, tudi ustreznejša poročanja o dogodku, najdete v običajnih medijih, kot analitična avantgarda pa se spoprimimo z eno samo mislijo generalnega sekretarja. Takole je sporočil članicam in njihovim državljanom: "3,5 odstotka BDP potrebujemo, da bomo ohranili Atlantik, Arktiko, Evropo in ZDA varne." Takole je rekel – in kdo smo mi, da bi dvomili o njegovih besedah. Ali namenih, če smo že pri tem. Ampak samo zaradi informativne vloge nacionalnega medija razčistimo nekaj dilem … Da ohranimo omenjene pokrajine varne, pomeni, da jih obranimo pred sovražnikom. Sovražnik, tako generalni sekretar, ima očitno velike apetite po Atlantiku, Arktiki, Evropi in ZDA. Za varnost teh področij, območij in držav bo šel naš denar. Slovenci nismo naivni, predvsem pa ne brezglavo razsipni, da ne bi poskusili nekaj prišparati … Pod dva odstotka, kot dajemo zdaj, se zdi sprejemljivo, tako da moramo samo nekoliko oklestiti pri treh ali štirih postavkah, pa spustimo odstotke do današnje vrednosti. Šparovnost je lepa čednost in na prvi pogled se zdi, da bi najlažje prišparali pri Arktiki. Pustimo vnemar, da pri pešajočem javnem šolstvu zadnje generacije volivcev ne ločijo več natančno med Arktiko in Antarktiko – po podobni analogiji, kot se mešata Iran in Irak. In bi se verjetno Slovenija in Slovaška, če po naključju ne bi živeli v eni od obeh. Kakorkoli. Arktika se zdi zelo zelo oddaljena, ampak kot članica Nata smo zavezani braniti vse, kar brani Nato. Zdaj: morski levi, tjulnji in nekaj Eskimov se zdijo za slovenski braniteljski potencial precej abstraktna zadeva, ampak glede prihrankov se moramo vprašati, kdo je na Arktiki resnični sovražnik. Če vprašaš tam gori, koga se resnično ves čas in najbolj bojijo, ti bodo vsi odgovorili – se pravi tjulnji, polarne lisice, arktični zajci in Eskimi – da severnega medveda. Severni medved je največji plenilec na Arktiki in če Rutte misli z ohranjanjem arktične varnosti na Ruse in njihove apetite, se moti. Vsako živo bitje na daljnem severu se enega polarnega medveda boji bolj, kot se boji stotih Rusov. Če smo že pri tem … Sicer ne vemo zagotovo, ampak rajtamo, da se tudi Rusi sami bojijo polarnih medvedov. Za ohranitev Arktike varne bi se morali slovenski obrambni strokovnjaki, pa vojska, si mislimo, odpraviti na jago severnih medvedov. Kar pa se zdi problematično, ker ne zmoremo upleniti niti domačih rjavih, ki po Rakitni strašijo prebivalce; če pa jih že dobimo pred cevi, se oglasi kakšna civilna iniciativa. Se pravi, da moramo nemudoma pojasniti gospodu generalnemu sekretarju, da smo Slovenci za varovanje Arktike čisto neprimerni in da bi vsled tega prispevali le tri odstotke BDP. Svojo polovico odstotka odstopimo nekomu, ki ima z mrazom in ledom večje veselje. Dancem, recimo. Potem gremo naprej. Tu so Američani. Se pravi, da se moramo s tremi odstotki potruditi, da bodo ostali varni tudi Američani. V tej državi je situacija še bolj zapletena, kot je to na skrajnem severu. Kot vemo, so največji sovražniki Američanov in njihove varnosti Američani sami. Američani imajo s pobijanjem Američanov veliko veselje in letne številke mrtvih gredo v tisoče. Slovenci pa, kot veleva dobra vzgoja, se v prepire drugih ne vtikamo radi. Vsaj ne z odstotki. Pa še nekaj je. Z Melanijo, ki je kljub posavski provenienci mentalno očitno najbolj stabilen del družine Trump, za varnost Amerike naredimo več kot nekatere druge članice Nata. Tako nam lahko na račun Amerike Rutte ponovno zmanjša prispevek za pol odstotka. In smo že na 2,5. Atlantik bomo branili z vsemi silami. Slovenci radi hodimo na morje. Država bo prispevala vsa plovila, ki so ji na razpolago. Policija policijski čoln, vojska vojaško ladjo, Narodni muzej pa koliščarski deblak. Namesto po jadranskih obalah se bomo razmestili po atlantskih in namesto "Večeras je naša fešta" prepevali "Jutri gremo v napad!" Vse ostalo bo ostalo enako. Tako pridemo do Evrope in njene varnosti. Ki jo je treba ohraniti z vsem, kar imamo. Parlamentarna skupščina Nata je bila v Ljubljani o tem jasna. Evropo bomo branili z orožjem in z obrambnimi izdatki. O tem ni dvoma. Kot kaže, jo branimo in jo bomo branili pred Rusi. Nekoliko manj je jasno, kako jo bomo obranili pred domačimi norci. Oziroma, če citiramo slavnega Rusa: "Glave nas bodo stali bedaki v lastnih vrstah."

Spolupracovník Postoja Andrej Žiarovský a redaktor Lukáš Krivošík diskutujú o posledných udalostiach okolo rusko-ukrajinskej vojny. Začínajú rozhovorom s Angelou Merkelovou, ktorá naznačila poľskú spoluzodpovednosť za ruskú agresiu. Rozoberú, čím by americké Tomahawky mohli pomôcť Ukrajine. A čo s ruským upozornením, že prípadná dodávka týchto zbraňových systémov naruší vzťahy s USA. Veľkou témou je pokračujúca palivová kríza v Rusku. Podľa Žiarovského si málokto u nás všimol, že popri Ukrajincoch začínajú mať problémy s náborom vojakov aj Rusi. Donald Trump sa stretol s americkými generálmi a admirálmi. Vyrokoval tiež mier v Gaze. Udrží sa mier na Blízkom východe? A zaslúžil by si americký prezident Nobelovu cenu za mier? Dotkneme sa tiež európskej iniciatívy REPoverEU. Slovenská vláda má výhrady. A nesmrtiacej vojenskej pomoci ministra obrany Roberta Kaliňáka Ukrajine.

Socialiniame tinkle „Facebook“ gyventojas pasidalijo nuotrauka, kurioje matyti, kad Vilniaus Šeškinės aikštėje nusidriekė eilė prie palapinės, kurioje, kaip teigiama, prekiaujama propagandiniais rusiškais leidiniais. Ten apsilankiusi žurnalistė Miglė Kalinauskaitė bandė išsiaiškinti, kokia spauda čia pardavinėjama ir kas ją perka.

Šiandien bus paskelbta, kam atiteks šių metų Nobelio taikos premija. Jos trokšta Jungtinių Valstijų prezidentas Donaldas Trumpas, bet pasak ekspertų, net padėjus pasiekti paliaubas Gazos Ruože, jo politika išlieka pernelyg skaldanti.Žvaigždžių gyvenimo paslaptys, patarimai sodininkams, kalendoriai, filmų apžvalgos – viename sostinės turgų platus spaudos rusų kalba pasirinkimas. Ar propagandiniais leidiniais prekiaujama legaliai?Moksleiviai užsienio kalbų pradeda mokytis pasitelkdami naują mokymosi įrankį.

Kokia tai technologija?Kaune vyksta pirmoji miesto knygų mugė.Ved. Darius Matas.

Donald Trump says Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of his Gaza peace plan. During an extraordinary round table on the Antifa organisation last night, the US President was interrupted by Marco Rubio and given a hand-written message. He told those assembled at the White House: ‘I was just given a note by the Secretary of State saying that we're very close to a deal in the Middle East, and they'll need me pretty quickly.' Details of the deal, including the finalised list of prisoners Hamas wants freed as part of an exchange, remain unclear. But the first part of the deal could be set in motion as soon as today once the Israeli government approves the plan at around 2 p.m. local time. Is he heading for a Nobel Peace Prize?Meanwhile, Starmer is in Mumbai, researching India's digital ID system as a potential model for the UK. The Prime Minister said India's scheme, which has been rolled out to almost all 1.4 billion citizens over the past 15 years, had been a ‘massive success'.

As countries all over the world, but particularly liberal democracies in the West, turn themselves inside out over the issue of migration and in the process empowering the far right, it was my great pleasure to speak to one of the few people who actually is willing to give calm, clear facts on this subject. Zoe Gardner is rightly a prominent figure in media and public debates on migration, but is almost the only person willing to stand up and be counted with some humane, calm and utterly essential facts on the matter. It was such a privilege to get her on the podcast and I hope you get as much from the conversation as I did.

Ksenija Juvan devet let živi v Sloveniji. Prihaja iz ruskega mesta Toljati, ki mu pravijo tudi ruski Detroit, saj se je tam razvila ruska avtomobilska industrija. V Rusiji sicer ne živi že od leta 2002, prepotovala je svet - Nemčija, Kitajska, Dubaj, nato pa našla ljubezen ravno v Sloveniji. O Slovencih pravi, da ne razume, zakaj se vedno tako radi primerjamo z drugimi, ceni pa našo skrb za zdravje, dobro prehrano in varno okolje. Pravi, da je največji stereotip o Rusih ta, da že za zajtrk pijejo vodko.

Po tom, čo Poliaci zostreľovali nad svojím územím ruské drony, ruské stíhačky lietali v Estónskom vzdušnom priestore aj nad poľskou ropnou plošinou v Baltskom mori. NATO aktivovalo svoj článok štyri a spoločné konzultácie a Estónsko žiada rokovanie aj Bezpečnostnej rady OSN.Čo všetko tieto ruské provokácie znamenajú? Prečo Slovensko svoju bezpečnostnú radu štátu nezvolalo? Ako je chránený náš vzdušný priestor? A ako to vyzerá na Ukrajine, kde Rusi pokračujú v zabíjaní civilistov? Aký je stav na fronte?Spojené kráľovstvo, Kanada či Austrália uznali Palestínsky štát. Izrael ostro protestuje a pokračuje vo vojne v Gaze. Čo takéto vyhlásenia o Palestíne znamenajú a ako sa vyvíja situácia v Gaze? Má to celé vojenské riešenie? Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s generálom vo výslužbe a šéfom mimoparlamentnej ODS Pavlom Mackom.

The government is expected to press ahead with recognition of Palestinian statehood, before a formal declaration at the United Nations. Prime Minister Keir Starmer set out plans earlier this year to recognise Palestine – but what does this actually mean? And what does the move actually achieve; is it driven by principle, by politics – or by pressure from within his own party?Michael Stephens of RUSI and Gabriel Pogrund of the Sunday Times join James Heale to assess the significance of this shift. They discuss the backlash from countries like the US, the unease within Labour ranks and the growing tension between domestic politics and Britain's standing with allies in the Middle East. France, Australia and Canada, close allies of Britain, announced their own plans to recognise Palestine, yet the US has condemned any move. What does Starmer's recognition of Palestine mean for the UK's relationship with the US? And is Starmer at risk of being outflanked – both at home and abroad?Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Štvrtá vláda Roberta Fica otočila zahraničnopolitický kurz Slovenska. Premiér hovorí o suverénnej zahraničnej politike orientovanej na všetky štyri svetové strany. Čo Slovensku premiérova nová zahraničná politika priniesla? Prečo naši exministri zahraničných vecí a diplomati hovoria, že nás to izoluje a ničí vzťahy s našimi spojencami?Minister zahraničných vecí protestuje proti účasti českého vicepremiéra na opozičnom proteste a Európski socialisti sa vraj definitívne chystajú vylúčiť Smer zo svojich radov. Rusi medzitým stále zabíjajú na Ukrajine civilistov, vrátane detí, desaťtisíce ich uniesli do Ruska a najnovšie sa ruské drony už objavili aj nad Poľskom či Rumunskom.Prečo si teda náš premiér stále podáva ruku s ruským prezidentom a Slovensko sa odmieta zbaviť ruského plynu a ropy aj keď nás už na to vyzýva aj americký prezident Trump? A ako dopadli rokovania premiéra s Ukrajinským prezidentom? V ako stave je spolupráca vo V4?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s ministrom zahraničných vecí a európskych záležitostí a podpredsedom strany Smer – SD Jurajom Blanárom.

We all saw the handshakes – but Trump's meeting with Putin in Alaska has yet to see a peace deal signed and an end to the invasion of Ukraine. Now, it's being reported that the US is considering a new wave of sanctions on Russia's financial enablers – looking at secondary countries acting as middle men. Trump also wants to see more action from the EU – demanding trade tariffs on India and China as well as a quicker end to the EU importing Russian energy. All of this goes to show that cutting one country out of the financial system is NOT. EASY. AT. ALL. In the re-spin (originally published in November 2024) our expert host Marit Rødevand is joined by Chloe Cina of RUSI, Jessica Cath of Thistle Initiatives, and Mitch Trehan of Allica Bank.The panel discuss three provocative statements: "the compliance industry is more focused on box-ticking than truly fighting financial crime", "sanctions are great for headlines - but criminals use them as a roadmap", and "AI hasn't stopped criminals—it's just made their jobs easier".Will Trump's new sanctions package bring an end to the war in Ukraine – or are we still just ticking boxes?

Can Turkey act as a stabilising force in Syria and Iraq, or are its policies driven by short-term security concerns? As Ankara seeks to navigate the shifting geopolitical landscape of the Middle East, its approach to Syria and Iraq has become a key test of its regional influence. In this episode of Global Security Briefing, Neil Melvin is joined by Burcu Ozcelik, Senior Research Fellow, RUSI, Dr Serhat Erkmen, RUSI associate fellow and founder of the geopolitical risk consultancy, Pros and Cons, and Dr Oytun Orhan, Coordinator of Levant Studies at the Centre for Middle Eastern Studies (ORSAM), to examine Turkey's policies. The discussion explores the impact of domestic pressures, regional rivalries, security threats, and great power relations, asking whether Ankara can translate tactical gains into a sustainable regional role.  

Vláda chce bleskovo odklepnúť svoju takmer trojmiliardovú konsolidáciu. Minister financií nám presne povedal, ako si utiahnu opasky pracujúci ľudia, ktorý majú viac pracovať, no neprezradil, ako presne bude šetriť štát. Opozícia preto pozýva ľudí na protesty do ulíc. Nespokojní sú aj odborári či potravinári.Spojí vládna konsolidácia politickú opozíciu? Ako by v zlom stave verejných financií a narastajúcemu dlhu konsolidovali oni? A prečo k protestom neprizvali aj Matovičove hnutie Slovensko? Ako by opozícia budovala našu bezpečnosť v čase, keď Rusi posielajú svoje drony do Poľska či do Rumunska? Podporuje SaS náš záväzok zvýšiť výdavky na obranu z dvoch na 5 % hrubého domáceho produktu? A ako by zahraničnú politiku robila dnešná opozícia?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s predsedom strany Sloboda a solidarita a poslancom Národnej rady Branislavom Gröhlingom.

Trump has changed the Department of Defense to the Department of War, well kind of. It's gonna cost a lot of money and it's not totally official. But still, not great!

This week Thomas is joined by academic and RUSI fellow, Dr. Burcu Ozcelik, a leading expert on Turkish domestic and foreign policy, particularly its relations with the Kurds and the Middle East. With a Ph.D. from Cambridge University on the topic of the PKK and their path to political reconciliation, Burcu has written widely about the Kurds and their relationship with the Turkish state - you can find her work over on X @BurcuAOzcelik Burcu provides a deep dive into the history of the Kurds, a people divided across national borders after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and traces the evolution of the PKK from its Marxist-Leninist, separatist origins to a group that has now shifted its focus to achieving political and cultural rights within Turkey. The pair also explore the political motives of President Erdoğan and the Turkish establishment, who are seeking to finally resolve the Kurdish issue as a matter of long-term statecraft, before concluding with a forward-looking analysis of Turkey's role as a rising middle power in the post-Assad Middle East, which now prioritizes stability and economic connectivity over past ideological ambitions.

Agresívni ruskí okupanti útočili dvomi desiatkami dronov na Poľsko. Zobudili sme sa tak dnes do nového sveta? Možno až dvadsiatku dronov vyslali Ruskí agresori na Poľsko, nášho blízkeho spojenca, priateľa a najmä člena Európskej únie a NATO. Podľa všetkého nešlo o ďalší omyl ale cielený ruský útok. Jeden z dronov alebo jeho trosky zničili rodinný dom na východe Poľska.Môžeme sa vôbec dnes cítiť pre ruské a Putinove chúťky v bezpečí? Ako na to reaguje naša vláda, a náš premiér, ktorý si s úsmevom podáva ruku s Putinom a žiada pre neho akési bezpečnostné záruky? Aké vôbec máme možnosti sa brániť? Čo má robiť Slovensko a čo Európska únia a NATO? Je Slovensko v medzinárodnej izolácii a kto nás bude brániť, keď premiér reční o tom, že by nám svedčala neutralita?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s diplomatom bývalý štátnym tajomníkom ministerstva obrany a ešte donedávna aj veľvyslancom Slovenska v Spojenom kráľovstve Róbertom Ondrejcsákom.

Vláda robí zahraničnú politiku nie pre Slovensko, ale pre 20 percent voličov Smeru. Slovensku tým podľa bývalého veľvyslanca v Londýne Róbert Ondrejcsáka škodí, konkrétne tým, že zneisťuje budúcich investorov. Tí jednoducho neinvestujú peniaze na Slovensku, ak počúvajú predstaviteľov vládnych strán spochybňovať našu európsku budúcnosť. To môže spôsobiť miliardové škody. Čo môže pokaziť ako veľvyslanec Miroslav Radačovský na Cypre?V podcaste s Róbertom Ondrejcsákom sa dozviete:–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 1. minúty –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ že tri stretnutia Roberta Fica s Putinom sú hanba a zahraničná politika len pre jeho voličov;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 3:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako Rusi nedodržali to, čo sľúbili Maďarom v súvislosti s ich jadrovými elektrárňami;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 6:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako nás budú súdiť podľa toho, s kým sa stretávame;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 7:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako konkrétne nám škodí Ficova politika orientovaná iba na východ;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 8:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako sa zahraničná politika premietne do života bežného Slováka;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 10:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ že spochybňovanie európskej budúcnosti Slovenska z úst smerákov nám môže spôsobiť miliardové škody;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 12:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ či za jeho pôsobenia v Londýne Veľká Británia ovplyvňovala voľby na Slovensku;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 13:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako boli Ficove výmysly o ovplyvňovaní volieb vnímané v Londýne;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 17:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ čo je ovplyvňovanie volieb a čo je podpora demokracie;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 24:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ako vyzeral vpád šťuky Blanára do rybníka so slovenskými diplomatmi;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ od 30:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ čo dokáže pokaziť Miroslav Radačovský ako veľvyslanec na Cypre;–⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ po 33:00 –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ či Robert Kaliňák svojimi nákupmi posilňuje armádu.

Britain has a new Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper, and this week's episode dives into the UK's foreign policy and how it could in theory transcend some of the country's current political divides. To dig into this topic, Jane and Jason are joined by Michael Stephens, senior fellow at Global Nation and an associate fellow at RUSI. Mike's new report, ‘Rules Britannia' is being launched today, and is full of proposals for how Britain can help Order the Disorder. Mike and his co-authors are trying to build a broad consensus across political parties and traditions, to advance ‘a unifying vision of Britain's role in the world that is grounded in our national values'.   Brits do generally see their country as one that can play a positive role in the world. But the recent years have lost that consensus with rival sloans: from Brexit and “Global Britain”, to the short-lived “tilt to the Indo-Pacific”, then the “NATO-first” approach of the strategic defence review. In short, recent British policy has been somewhat confused by the succession of different governments and foreign secretaries in the past few years. And as results British citizens do not feel current policy reflects their priorities.   Delving into the topic, the panel talk about opportunities for the U.K. to play a leading role in areas that it's good at: rule of law, international finance and public health. These are the domains where there can be cross-party support rooted in a sense of Britain's comparative advantages. We also discuss why Ukraine has - so far - been a unifying cause for Brits, with successive prime ministers committed to supporting the country's independence with military assistance - in stark contrast to the US. And who else can Britain work with in a “global middle-power alliance” to “change the calculations of the rule-breakers that are currently upending the international order” (per the report), while also trying to persuade the US not to abandon that order wholesale? In one of the punchier moments of debate, Jason questions why migration is dominating the headlines and why no one right now in British politics seems to want to make the positive case for attracting the best talent from around the world.

Rusi nechcú mier, chcú vojnu – drony zaútočili na misiu EÚ v Kyjeve. Nemecký kancelár je presvedčený, že Putin sa nechce stretnúť zo Zelenským.

Avizovaný blízky summit Putin-Zelenskyj je v nedohľadne. Šéf ruskej diplomacie Sergej Lavrov v americkej NBC najnovšie povedal, že „žiadne stretnutie nie je naplánované“.Po summite na Aljaške sa pritom hovorilo o dvoj prípadne trojstranných mierových rokovaniach v dohľadnom horizonte. A hovoril o nich Donald Trump! Po necelých dvoch týždňoch Moskva vysiela signál, že z tohto stretnutia nič nebude. Aspoň nateraz.Mohlo by byť len vtedy, ak by malo „prezidentskú agendu“, ktorá by podľa Lavrova vyhovovala Vladimírovi Putinovi.„Nevzdáme sa nášho Donbasu, nevzdáme sa nášho Krymu“ – zaznieva pritom z Kyjeva. Prezident Zelenskyj hovorí o mieri s prívlastkom „spravodlivý“. „Neprinútia nás k hanbe, ktorú Rusi vydávajú za kompromis,“ povedal na deň ukrajinskej nezávislosti.Nie je po tomto víkende mier ešte vzdialenejší? Téma pre generála vo výslužbe Pavla Macka.„Rusi to naťahujú. Presne vedia, čo je Achillova päta ukrajinského odporu. V momente, keď rozoštvú ukrajinskú spoločnosť a časť začne byť spokojná s tým, že už im dajme aj ten Donbas, len nech sa už vojna skončí, vtedy to Rusko vyhrá,“ tvrdí.Podcast pripravil Jaroslav Barborák.

Donald Trump has just met both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the same week - two leaders locked in a war that has reshaped global security. For Putin, the meeting with Trump offered legitimacy and a chance to show that Russia is still a power the US must engage with. For Zelenskyy, it was about survival, pressing Trump to keep American support flowing as Ukraine fights for its future.So what really happened behind those closed doors and what does it mean for NATO, Europe and the wider world? In this episode of The Fourcast, Matt Frei speaks to Emily Ferris from RUSI and William Alberque, a specialist on arms control and NATO, to explore what Trump's diplomacy tells us about the next phase of the war - and America's role in it.
