Podcasts about Russian

12 injured by man with Molotov cocktails and makeshift flamethrower at pro-Israel rally; Former assistant to Sean ‘Diddy' Combs cross-examined for second day; Covert Ukrainian drone operation strikes dozens of Russian jets; and more on tonight's broadcast.

North Korea's new warship remains submerged on its side more than 10 days after the embarrassing failure to side-launch the vessel last month, despite DPRK experts' confidence that they could right the ship. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made only a passing mention of North Korea at the Shangri-La Dialogue over the weekend, even as officials talked behind the scenes about wanting U.S. Forces Korea to play a bigger role in countering China. And Lee Jae-myung appears poised to claim the South Korean presidency in Tuesday's snap election, setting up potential changes in inter-Korean policy. This week, NK News CEO Chad O'Caroll and Lead Correspondent Shreyas Reddy join the podcast to discuss all these events during a busy week on the peninsula, as the ROK prepares to finally fill a monthslong leadership vacuum since Yoon Suk-yeol's ill-fated declaration of martial law and subsequent impeachment. They also talk about why North Korea will likely do little in response to a new president in Seoul and explore why Kim Jong Un should worry about Ukrainian drones following Kyiv's stunning attack on Russian assets far from the front lines. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

Nicolle Wallace on Trump doubling down on tariffs despite pushback, benefits for law firms who stood up to intimidation from the White House, and Ukraine's large scale attack on Russian airbases.Joined by: David Gura, Justin Wolfers, Sarah Longwell, Mitch Landrieu, Marc Elias, Mike Schmidt, Ryan Reilly, John Brennan, Claire McCaskill and Amb.

Russia and Ukraine wrap up a brief round of peace talks - after Ukraine launched an attack on Russian airbases. Also: why Britain is moving to war readiness, and the world's largest digital camera capturing the cosmos.

On the eve of negotiations in Istanbul between Russia and Ukraine, the Ukrainian military struck targets hundreds of miles inside Russian territory. Small drones, smuggled into Russia over many months, carried out the attacks. This show of force – one of the biggest Ukrainian attacks since the war started three years ago – boosted morale within Ukraine. But the path to a ceasefire remains murky.Host Elahe Izadi speaks with Ukraine bureau chief Siobhan O'Grady about whether these strikes could change the balance of power in the war in Ukraine. Plus, updates from a day of peace talks between the two powers. Today's show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Ariel Plotnick and mixed by Sean Carter.

Send us a textIn this chaotic return to the Daily Drop, Jared barrels through a no-holds-barred rundown of DOD chaos, diplomatic double-speak, and the ongoing clown show in space. The Pentagon's trying to win hearts and minds in Somalia with airstrikes, Space Force is low-key getting circled by Russian sats, and we're hoping AI can save Indopaycom's wargames. Spoiler: it won't.Jared dives into all of it — including the Thunderbirds doc that actually slapped (yes, really), privatized base hotels, and a new Kunsan commander who's literally cleaning up her husband's mess. There's also a raw take on the mental health industrial complex and why adding more psychologists might not fix what's broken.Unfiltered. Unscripted. Possibly unhinged. This is the military news you should be getting, but definitely won't from Public Affairs.

In this episode, Hanson explains what Trump is really signaling: that his strategy was always about making peace through strength — not appeasement. And now that Putin is throwing that opportunity away, the world sees who truly wants war. “ I think what Vladimir Putin thinks, that he's going to continue the war; continue the terror campaign; get greater concessions from the Europeans, the Americans, and the Ukrainians; and move the battle lines a little bit to the west. And I think he's sorely mistaken. He's misreading Donald Trump.  “If I was Vladimir Putin, I would cut a deal today. And then, I would resume natural gas and oil shipments to Europe. I would open the economy back up. And I would tell the Russian people what you did.  … And that's a lot better—it's not a good scenario, but it's a lot better than another Stalingrad or Verdun or Somme for the next two years for Russia.”

Andreas Steno, founder and CEO of Steno Research, joins Mikkel Rosenvold, the firm's partner and head of geopolitics, to discuss the latest Ukrainian drone strike on Russian air bases, surging commodity prices, the state of sanctions, and why the U.S. dollar is weakening.

Yesterday in Colorado, a man shouted “Free Palestine” as he attacked a group of elderly demonstrators who had gathered to peacefully advocate for the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza. The episode is at once the nation's latest paroxysm of antisemitic violence and the newest flashpoint in the debate about immigration: the alleged assailant was reportedly in the country illegally, having overstayed a visa. Chief Playbook correspondent Dasha Burns and author and managing editor Jack Blanchard join unpack it all. That, plus a new wave of Ukrainian strikes hammer deep in Russian territory.

Interview withMark Chalmers, President & CEO of Energy Fuels Inc.Marty Tunney, COO of IsoEnergy Ltd.Recording date: 30th May 2025The uranium sector stands at a critical inflection point where mounting supply constraints intersect with unprecedented political support and surging nuclear demand, creating compelling conditions for sustained price appreciation and outsized returns for positioned investors.*Supply-Demand Fundamentals Favor Higher Prices*A fundamental supply shortage looms as existing high-grade uranium deposits deplete while replacement projects face significantly higher development costs. Energy Fuels CEO Mark Chalmers warns that future supply sources remain uncertain: "I don't know where it's going to come looking out five or 10 years because some of the best deposits are being mined right now and they're depleting themselves." The replacement cost dynamics are stark—new uranium production must cover exploration, permitting, infrastructure development, mining, and reclamation costs at price levels far exceeding historical norms.Current spot prices around $60-70 per pound remain well below the $100+ incentive pricing required to trigger meaningful new production. This creates a supply response lag that could persist for years even after prices reach incentive levels, given the extended timelines required for uranium project development and regulatory approval.*Political Tailwinds Accelerate Market Dynamics*Uranium benefits from rare bipartisan political support driven by energy security and decarbonization imperatives. Recent executive orders from the Trump administration targeting critical mineral supply chains reinforce government commitment to domestic uranium production. As Chalmers notes: "The ongoing support by both parties actually for nuclear power and reestablishing our ability to mine and produce nuclear power, including small modular reactors is gaining momentum."The Russian uranium ban, formally taking effect in 2028, will remove a significant supply source from Western markets. Industry leaders expect accelerated implementation due to geopolitical tensions, compressing the timeline for supply shortfalls. Simultaneously, China's aggressive nuclear expansion creates additional demand pressure, with the capability to construct reactors in 18 months versus multi-year Western timelines.Established Producers Positioned to BenefitMarket dynamics increasingly favor proven producers over development-stage companies. Many newer uranium companies have overcommitted on delivery contracts while struggling with operational challenges.  Infrastructure advantages amplify competitive positioning. Energy Fuels' White Mesa Mill serves as the primary conventional uranium processing facility in the United States, creating a strategic bottleneck that generates high-margin toll processing revenue. Companies without processing access face limited options, as IsoEnergy's Marty Tunny explains: "If you don't have access to the White Mesa Mill and you're a conventional hard rock miner in the USA, you don't have anywhere in the next 5 to seven years to process your ore."*Technical Advantages Emerge*Recent operational challenges at in-situ recovery operations highlight advantages of conventional hard rock mining methods. Conventional mining offers greater operational control, cost predictability, and flexibility compared to ISR techniques. This technical differentiation becomes increasingly valuable as the industry recognizes that uranium mining complexity exceeds that of other commodities.*Investment Implications*The uranium investment thesis centers on classic supply-demand imbalance amplified by geopolitical factors and infrastructure constraints. Companies with existing production capabilities, processing facilities, and proven operational track records appear positioned to benefit disproportionately from emerging market dynamics. The combination of political support, supply constraints, and rising demand creates conditions for sustained higher uranium prices, particularly benefiting North American producers with strategic infrastructure assets and established utility relationships.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

OPEC+ has agreed to increase production, setting July's output at 410 kb/d above June and 822 kb/d above the original target. Despite these increases, oil prices rose, likely due to geopolitical tensions, including strikes on Russian airfields that may affect production.

Three years ago, Russian troops and tanks invaded Ukraine and started the largest land war in Europe since World War II. And like the Second World War, the war in Ukraine has drawn in money, weapons, and even troops from around the world, from the United States to North Korea. The invasion served as a wake-up call to many in the West about the threats posed by Vladimir Putin's revanchist Russia, even while it drained the Kremlin's war chest and depleted its military—including a march on Moscow by disgruntled mercenary forces. John Sullivan served as the U.S. ambassador to Russia from February 2020 to September 2022, and in his book Midnight in Moscow, he related the behind-the-scenes activity in Moscow and the West in the lead-up to the war. It is a war that many have come to see—and that Putin has declared it to be—a struggle against the West itself, not just Ukraine. Has Russia been weakened by the collapse of its Syrian ally Bashar al-Assad? How extensive is Russian involvement in attacks on Western European infrastructure? How has Russia been able to evade harsh sanctions? And how is the West doing—under President Joe Biden and next under President Donald Trump—in meeting the threat?

In April 1945, in the last days of the war in Europe, everything was falling apart for the Third Reich.  Adolf Hitler and his closest advisors holed up in a bunker in Berlin and issued delusional orders until the Russians arrived. Hitler, his wife, and other high ranking Nazi officials took their own lives rather than be captured. However, what happened to Hitler's remains has been the genesis of theories and conspiracies for decades.  Learn more about the death of Hitler and what then happened to his remains on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

A federal court has blocked most of President Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs. The judges said the president overstepped his authority when he put tariffs on nearly every country in the world last month. Trump also appears increasingly frustrated with Russian leader Vladimir Putin over Moscow's ongoing airstrikes in Ukraine. How could this affect any peace negotiations? And one of the largest right-wing political gatherings is getting underway in Eastern Europe.Want more comprehensive analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Korea's brief but significant period as an empire as it moved from the 500-year-old dynastic Joseon monarchy towards modernity. It was in October 1897 that King Gojong declared himself Emperor, seizing his chance when the once-dominant China lost to Japan in the First Sino-Japanese War. The king wanted to have the same status as the neighbouring Russian, Chinese and Japanese Emperors, to shore up a bid for Korean independence and sovereignty when the world's major powers either wanted to open Korea up to trade or to colonise it. The Korean Empire lasted only thirteen years, yet it was a time of great transformation for this state and the whole region with lasting consequences in the next century…With Nuri Kim Associate Professor in Korean Studies at the faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of Wolfson CollegeHolly Stephens Lecturer in Japanese and Korean Studies at the University of EdinburghAnd Derek Kramer Lecturer in Korean Studies at the University of SheffieldProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Isabella Bird Bishop, Korea and her Neighbors: A Narrative of Travel, With an Account of the Recent Vicissitudes and Present Position of the Country (first published 1898; Forgotten Books, 2019)Vipan Chandra, Imperialism, Resistance and Reform in Late Nineteenth-Century Korea: Enlightenment and the Independence Club (University of California, Institute of East Asian Studies, 1988)Peter Duus, The Abacus and the Sword: The Japanese Penetration of Korea, 1859-1910 (University of California Press, 1995)Carter J.
