2025 has come to a close - and it's another year-end episode reflecting on the best and worst cars Jason and Derek have encountered this year. Maximum Carmudgeonation is achieved today, so hold onto your hats - and we guarantee, you've never listened to another podcast where the Vinfast VF8 and McLaren F1 are both mentioned. === Visit http://JasonSentMe.com to get a Hagerty Guaranteed Value (TM) collector-car insurance quote! === Before getting into the thick of it, Jason updates us on his MK3 Volkswagen Cabrio VR6 swap - with the 2.slow and the rest of the front + rear subframes out, we learn one other MK3 (Jetta GLX) has been sacrificed in the name of top-down VR6 burnouts. A myth is busted - Harbor Freight plastic carts don't appear to be makeshift engine stands after all. But they do explode catastrophically! Derek also goes over some highlights of another year dealing cars at OTS - with sales and consignments including the likes of the Ferrari F50, Porsche Carrera GT, and an array of modern Ferrari Challenge cars (360 Challenge Stradale, F430 Scuderia, and 458 Speciale to name a few). He also reflects on a changing market - moving away from 60s Ferraris like 250 Lusso and 330 GTC. Jason begins with his first wave highlights - including but not limited to: Lancia Stratos, Lancia Thema 8.32, Cizeta-Moroder V16T, Saab 9000 Aero, Alfa Romeo 164 Quadrifoglio, E34 BMW M5 with an S70B56 swap, the Kwiek Classics Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series 6-Speed, Ford Sierra Cosworth, Merkur XR4Ti, Jeep Cherokee, and of course Derek's recently acquired Mk1 Jaguar. Derek follows with the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale, RUF Tribute, Kimera EVO37, the Toyota 2000GT, and more recently the Porsche 911 IROC RSR (to be further explored on a future episode…) Jason remarks on many of the the other great cars he's driven for various Revelations, Ultimate Drag Race, and Ultimate Lap Battle episodes, including the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 (C8 and C4), Porsche 992 GT3 RS, Ford Mustang GTD, Ford GT (both generations), W204 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG (including the Anderzen manual swap), Alpine A110, Audi RS6 Avant, and the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid (the BMW M5 Touring was unfortunately not so good). But not to worry- plenty of Carmudgeonation goes down - with roasts of the automatic Porsche 996 Turbo, BMW i3 and i8, the ND2 Mazda Miata, and even Jason's own MK3 Cabrio (while it still had its 2.slow). All this and more, on this week's end-of-2025 finale of The Carmudgeon Show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This Inside Java Podcast takes a meta approach. Instead of focusing on specific features, it explores the bigger picture: What are the right problems for Java to tackle? What are the current and future challenges for the Java platform? Why is predictability so important for Java, and what's driving the recent focus on learners and students? Nicolai Parlog discusses these topics with Georges Saab, Senior Vice President of the Java Platform Group and Chair of the OpenJDK Governing Board.

Över våra huvuden kretsar mängder av satelliter som varje dag samlar in hisnande mängder data – om skogar, städer, väder, markförändringar och mycket mer. Men vad händer egentligen med all den här rymddatan? Och hur kan den bli till nytta för dig, din kommun eller ditt företag?I det här avsnittet möter vi Iris Lee Thompson, expert på jordobservation, och Ernesto Gutiérrez, ansvarig för innovation och samhällsnytta – båda från Rymdstyrelsen. De berättar om det nya rymddataprogrammet som ska få fler att använda satellitdata för att lösa verkliga problem på jorden.Vi pratar om hur rymddata kan avslöja miljöbrott, hjälpa elnätet, förbättra folkhälsa och skapa helt nya tjänster och företag. Och du får veta hur din idé kan få stöd för att bli verklighet.Har vi åkt till Mars än? är en populärvetenskaplig podd om rymden, framtiden och människans plats i universum. Med nyfikenhet och humor tar den sig an stora frågor: Hur långt har vi kommit i rymdforskningen? Vad krävs för att åka till Mars? Och varför är vi så fascinerade av den röda planeten? Programledarna intervjuar forskare, ingenjörer och astronauter, och förklarar allt från livets uppkomst till raketmotorer – begripligt och engagerande för alla som någon gång tittat upp mot himlen och undrat. Serien berättar inte bara om rymden – den använder rymden för att förstå vad det innebär att vara människa. Förutom ämnen som mörk materia, galaxer, ljusets hastighet, satelliter och odling av mat i rymden så har vi i tidigare avsnitt följt astronauten Marcus Wandts resa mot rymden och hans förberedelser inför uppdraget till ISS – från träning i Sverige och runtom i världen till hur det känns att stå på startplattan. Har vi åkt till Mars än? finns också som en juniorserie för mellanstadiet där barnens egna frågor står i centrum: Hur bygger man en bas på Mars? Vad döljer sig i ett svart hål? Och vad är solen gjord av? Serien har 20 avsnitt med tillhörande lärarhandledningar som gör vetenskapen tillgänglig och rolig. Har vi åkt till Mars än? görs på Beppo av Rundfunk Media i samarbete med Saab. Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Wie lobby't, die krijgt wat. Zeker autofabrikanten in Europa. Het werd al gelekt, maar nu is het officieel: de verbrandingsmotor hoeft toch niet in de ban in 2035. Verder worden uitstootreducties voor 2030 en 2035 verzwakt. En misschien is dit nog maar het begin van groene ambities die omlaag worden geschroefd. Maar waar ze bij Stellantis staan te juichen, schreeuwt de elektrische autofabrikant moord en brand. We bespreken wie er profiteert en wie niet. Verder is het tijd om extra koffie in te slaan. Wie graag handelt in Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Tesla en de rest van de Amerikaanse techreuzen, mag binnenkort 23 uur per dag doorrazen op de Nasdaq. Eén uurtje pauze, voor wat onderhoud en verwerking van handel. En weer door, door, door, want dat willen buitenlandse handelaren én Amerikaanse gokkers die gewend zijn geraakt aan Robinhood.

In this episode of the Defence Connect Spotlight podcast, host Steve Kuper is joined by Andy Keough, managing director at Saab Australia, and Dean Rosenfield, CEO of Nova Systems. The conversation focuses on the collaboration between Saab and Nova Systems in the multi-domain command, control, communications and computers (C4) area, emphasising the need for sovereign capabilities in Australia due to rapidly changing technology and geopolitical challenges. Both companies have a long history of working together, with Saab focusing on command and control systems and Nova Systems on operational test and evaluation and systems engineering. The discussion covers the importance of systems integration, test and evaluation, and digital engineering in the increasingly software-based system-of-systems environment, highlighting the role of investing in people and embracing technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning. Key challenges for the defence industry include security concerns with new technologies like AI and the need for commercial frameworks that support innovation, experimentation and a higher acceptance of risk from Defence.

Darrell Castle discusses President Trump’s 28 point proposed peace plan along with a few words about the other war, the one in the Middle East. Transcription / Notes: PEACE IN UKRAINE Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 5th day of December in the year of our Lord 2025. Although the title of this Castle Report is peace, my beat is war today and as usual there is no shortage of war to talk about. Specifically, I will be discussing President Trump's 28 point proposed peace plan along with a few words about the other war, the one in the Middle East. Yes, President Trump is proposing peace in Ukraine. Perhaps he wants to turn his attention to other wars and potential wars or maybe he feels bad about campaigning that he could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours with just a few phone calls. I will be telling you what I propose the U.S. do in Ukraine and the Middle East but before we get to that listen to this important information. I am currently in the last month of my 46-year legal career which ends with the end of December. I still find it hard to say the word retirement but I guess that's what is happening to me. The profession of law has been great for me over the years. I worked hard to respect the profession and it returned the affection, but it doesn't give its favors, one has to earn them. The law allowed me the opportunity to earn a good life and I am very grateful for that. No top-down collectivized system told me what my life would be, instead I was free to chart my own course and achieve all that my ability could achieve. Having said all that, this is a very stressful and very busy month for me so this will be the last Castle Report for this year. I will join you again on the first Friday in January God willing. I plan to continue telling you each week what is wrong with the world and what I think the solutions should be. The President of the United States has proposed a 28-point plan to end the Ukraine war so let's take a look at that plan and compare it to what my version of a peace plan would look like. President Trump promised he would end the war 24 hours after he was elected. That was a little unrealistic as time has confirmed, but nevertheless it could have ended rather quickly. War means intervention by the United States and the best antidote to intervention is obviously non-intervention. No threats, no sanctions no weapons, no intelligence, no coordination, no missiles fired deep into Russia, and no need for elaborate peace plans. The real fix is much simpler than all that, just come home and mind your own business which is $38 trillion of debt. The President must know that intervention by the U.S. started the whole thing and this plan, though well meaning, is just more of that intervention. The U.S. has had its hands in this mess from the get-go and any plan has to consider that. The Orange Revolution in the early 2000s began it and the Maidan Revolution in 2014 completed the process from which conflict the U.S. apparently thought would result in a NATO military presence on the very border of Russia. Unless we come to understand the origin of this conflict it's hard to see how we can help resolve it. The two so-called revolutions that I mentioned were attempts to manipulate Ukraine into a hostile relationship with Russia from which Ukraine had no possibility of victory even with U.S. and NATO help. Looking back at the 2014 coup we see two U.S. senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham actually present in the capital of Ukraine demanding publicly that the people of that country overthrow their duly elected government and replace it with one more favorably inclined toward the U.S. Victoria Nuland, the State Department spokesperson for many presidents, including Joe Biden, was caught on one of those open mic telephone calls planning who would run the post-coup government. She took cookies to the protesters and bragged that we achieved it all with only $5 billion. So, as a result of this intervention, the U.S. is left trying to manage a problem that it created in the first place. Hundreds of thousands of dead and hundreds of billions of U.S. money expended and apparently all for nothing. No, actually it was not a war for nothing, so what was it for. A recent report tells us at least the main purpose. While the U.S. is $38 trillion in debt and Europe is trying to manage its decline under the weight of spiraling crime, collapsing birth rates and demographic destruction some in Europe and the U.S. are doing quite well. The global arms industry without which the bloody struggles in Ukraine and the Middle East would not be possible are enjoying record profits. The world's biggest weapons manufacturers posted an all-time record $679 billion in revenue in 2024. The globalists and neo-cons or whatever you choose to call them live to fuel these companies and make them happy. A report from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) reports what we already knew and that is that while the middle classes and poor are decaying rapidly, arms makers are thriving as never before. The U.S. companies lead the world of course with 39 companies making $334 billion. European companies are working hard to keep up the 26 largest enjoyed a 13 Percent increase in sales. Sweden's powerful Saab led the way with a 24 percent jump in profits. One other company, a Czech based company, though smaller than Saab was given the lead in feeding the Ukraine meat grinder and its revenue increased 200 percent. Israel didn't want to lose out so its companies which send weapons to conflicts all over the world increased profits by 16 percent. The SIPRI Report concludes that the arms giants are “capitalizing” on high demand. Therefore, they and the politicians they bribe have zero incentive to make peace. In World War two the situation was different because literally everyone including the President of the U.S. had sons or other relatives in the conflict but now the cannon fodder role is left for others. Russia's situation has seemed dire politically and economically at times, but not for Russian arms makers. Combined, their increase in 2024 was 23 percent. One might reasonably conclude that this whole war thing taken in its entirety is a conspiracy to destroy as many people as possible in order to make record profits. The people of the West may fear walking the streets of their cities but they never have to fear for the health of their “defense firms” because they are on the job. For the first time ever, several Middle East companies have cracked the top 100. The deal is so sweet everyone gets in on it. These companies anxiously search the world for rare earth metals to keep the killing going as long as possible. Could that have anything to do with all the talk and deal making about the Chinese controlling the rare earth market. Back in the Middle East Dubai's Edge Group made $4.7 billion much of it through drone and missile technology which they sell worldwide. For the first time Turkey's defense sector took in $31 billion combined. So, when we discuss peace and whether this or that plan will work we have to keep in mind that war is by far the most profitable racket on earth and the global elites who pontificate about climate change and moral values are the same ones who profit from the bloodshed. We should at least mention Just a few of the points in the President's 28-point plan. 1. Ukraine's sovereignty will be confirmed. 2. A full and comprehensive non-aggression agreement will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine, and Europe and all “ambiguities” of the past 30 years are hereby resolved. 5. Ukraine will receive “reliable” security guarantees. 7. Ukraine agrees to enshrine in its constitution that it will not join Nato and Nato agrees to include language in its charter that it will not accept Ukraine as a member. 8. Nato agrees to not deploy troops in Ukraine. 10. The U.S. will receive “compensation” for its guarantee. If Ukraine invades Russia it will lose the guarantee. If Russia invades Ukraine there will be a decisive, coordinated military response and all sanctions will be reimposed. If Ukraine, without cause, launches a missile at Moscow, the security guarantee will be dissolved. 11, Ukraine retains the right to EU membership. 12. A global package for the reconstruction of Ukraine will be prepared. The World Bank will develop the funds for this effort. 13. Russia will be reintegrated into the global economy. Sanctions will be gradually lifted. 17. The U.S. and Russia will reimpose arms control treaties including Start-1. 21. Crimea, Luhansk, and Donetsk will be recognized, including by the U.S., as Russian. 24. A humanitarian committee will be established to resolve humanitarian issues including exchange of all prisoners and bodies. 25. Ukraine will hold elections 100 days after the treaty is signed. 28. After the agreement is signed a ceasefire will immediately go into effect and all parties will withdraw to agreed upon lines. So, one thing that comes immediately to mind is that there are a lot of ambiguous terms in the agreement that will have to be defined and resolved. Right now, nobody seems to like it. Warhawk, Lindsey Graham hates it so it has that going for it. Zelensky hates it because there are a few Ukrainian people still alive and there are more profits to be made if he could just persuade Trump to give him more money. Russia seems at least willing to talk about implementation so despite the fact that it is perhaps not the best solution it is a solution so I pray that it works. Finally, folks, I pray that the U.S. will not bend to the will of Netanyahu and Zelensky, and their lobbyists in the U.S.. Come home close down much of the wasteful foreign “defense” spending. Mind our own business, reduce the deficit and defend America and its people. That's my peace plan. At Least that' the way I see it, Until January 2nd or thereabouts folks, This is Darrell Castle, Thanks for listening.
On this week's Defense & Aerospace Report Business Roundtable, sponsored by Bell, Dr. “Rocket” Ron Epstein of Bank of America Securities and Richard Aboulafia of the AeroDynamic advisory consultancy join host Vago Muradian to discuss a Wall Street ended a short trading week up on expectations of another interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve and strong Black Friday growth; Trump administration's push to pressure Ukraine to accept a peace deal that would be good for US and Russian companies; Europe seeks ways to defend itself and its interest without Washington's help; the race to return the flight control software on 6,000 or half the global Airbus A320 jetliner fleet to an earlier version that's less susceptible interference from solar flares; Poland's decision to pick Saab's A26 submarine over five competing European and Korean designs as its next submarine under a 2.5 billion euro program for three boats that fall under the EU's 50 billion euro SAFE loan program for new weapons; whether Canada will pick ThyssenKrupp or Hanwha for its patrol submarine project for up to 12 conventional attack boats; the British Army's decision to again halt use of its Ajax family of vehicles by General Dynamics after crews complained about being sickened by severe noise and vibration; and whether the Trump administration's operations in the Caribbean will be a boon for defense startups as both the Wall Street Journal and Reuters detail the challenges faces by Silicon Valley startup Anduril.
In this episode of The Korea Pro Podcast, John and Joon Ha assess South Korea's strategic leap in space technology after the successful early-morning launch of the Nuri rocket, exploring the implications for sovereign satellite capability, dual-use defense competitiveness and regional positioning against Japan's H3 program. The hosts analyze Poland's decision to choose Sweden's Saab over Hanwha Ocean for the Orka submarine project, examining what the loss signals for South Korea's ambitions to move up the defense-export value chain from land systems to complex naval platforms. They break down the Bank of Korea's decision to hold the base rate at 2.5% while upgrading the growth outlook, focusing on currency volatility, household-sector fragility and constrained policy space as markets price geopolitical risk into 2026. The episode also reviews President Lee Jae-myung's performance in Turkey, separating symbolic diplomacy from measurable outcomes and assessing whether outreach to Ankara reflects a broader multipolar strategy. The episode concludes with a look ahead to next week's protest marking one year since former President Yoon Suk-yeol's failed martial law declaration, where Korea Pro's Joon Ha Park and Lina Park will report from the National Assembly. About the podcast: The Korea Pro Podcast is a weekly conversation hosted by Korea Risk Group Executive Director Jeongmin Kim, Editor John Lee and correspondent Joon Ha Park, delivering deep, clear analysis of South Korean politics, diplomacy, security, society and technology for professionals who need more than headlines.

Lampenmaker Signify is al jaren op zoek naar een nieuwe inkomstenbron. De Chinese markt schiet namelijk maar niet op. Door een vastgoedcrisis daar zit niemand aan hun slimme lampen te denken. Een perfecte match met de defensie-industrie, die hard op zoek is naar bedrijven die kunnen helpen bij het opschalen. En Signify is niet de enige, want ook maakbedrijven Kendrion en Aalberts maken de draai naar defensie. Wat doet dat met de waardering van de aandelen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. Verder hebben we het over Prosus. De tech-investeerder deed vorige week al een poging om de beleggers enthousiast te krijgen voor hun kwartaalcijfers. Nu is er dan de volledige set met resultaten, en Prosus heeft niet gelogen. De winststijging is ongekend voor het bedrijf, maar toch stelt het teleur. En we hebben het over het einde van een vrij kort tijdperk. Het Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is namelijk niet meer. Elon Musk had het schip al verlaten, en het bleek al dat de beoogde doelen bij lange na niet gehaald werden. Maar nu horen we dat de afdeling in stilte is opgeheven.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sanjana Polapragada hosts a two-speaker conversation with Robert Miller, a seasoned “startup statesman” who has advised companies such as CrowdAI (now acquired by Saab) and Hawkeye 360 (now valued at over a billion dollars), and Emma Bates, CEO and founder of Cachai, a dual-use tech company (for both civilian and military purposes) focused on collaborative autonomy and drone innovation in the national security space. Together, they unpack how to navigate the national security startup ecosystem, secure government contracts, and cross the many “valleys of death” that mission-driven ventures face. Aimed at anyone with a concrete, government-focused venture idea, the episode offers practical how-tos for entering and thriving in the field. If you're curious about building a mission-driven venture in national security, this episode is your starting point. Produced in partnership with the Pava Center for Entrepreneurship at Johns Hopkins.Researched and hosted by Sanjana Polapragada; edited by Vishal Gogusetti.
De hele week werd gesmacht naar de cijfers van Nvidia, want die zouden bewijzen: die AI-bubbel bestaat niet. Héél even leek het nog waar te zijn ook. Maar het sentiment sloeg snel om, en toen trok onze redder alle beurzen met zich mee omlaag, ondanks die mega goede cijfers. Ook op onze eigen AEX staan de chipaandelen lager. Waar het misging en hoe die onverklaarbare omslag nu te verklaren valt, bespreken we deze aflevering. Je hoort ook waarom defensie-aandelen vandaag weer fors lager staan en waarom een vredesplan van Donald Trump en Vladimir Poetin beleggers kennelijk meer overtuigd dan groeiprognoses van het Duitse Rheinmetall, het bedrijf dat het meest inlevert. Dan duiken we ook nog in de cijfers van gamereus Ubisoft en moeten we het nog eens hebben over het bedrijf achter oorwurm Baby Shark. Het bedrijf ging naar de beurs dinsdag en het aandeel won direct 60 procent aan waarde, maar daar is drie dagen later niks meer van over. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
B.C. Premier David Eby tells Power & Politics that 'I almost fell out of my seat' when he learned that Saskatchewan is involved in conversations with Ottawa and Alberta about a pipeline to the B.C. coast — conversations Eby says B.C. was unaware of. Plus, Saab CEO Micael Johansson says it's up to Canada to make a decision on what fighter jets it buys, but makes the case for how Saab's model could enable Canadian sovereignty.

As first reported by the Globe and Mail, a source confirms to CBC's J.P. Tasker that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Prime Minister Mark Carney are moving closer to reaching a deal on the future of Alberta's energy sector, and that it's likely to include some language about a path forward for a northwest B.C. oil pipeline. RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme explains how Canada is working with the U.S. to pursue former Canadian Olympian Ryan Wedding, who U.S. officials accuse of being one of the world's most powerful drug lords and of murdering a federal witness. Plus, Swedish Defence Minister Pål Jonson makes the case for Canada to buy Saab's Gripen fighter jets.

Philipp Justus, Deutschlandchef von Google, kündigt den Bau eines neuen Rechenzentrums in Dietzenbach (Hessen) und den Ausbau des Standorts Hanau an. 5,5 Milliarden Euro sollen in Cloud- und KI-Kapazitäten fließen. Zweifel am Standort Deutschland hat Justus nicht: „Wir sind sehr positiv eingestellt gegenüber den Wachstumsmöglichkeiten in Deutschland.“ Es gebe allerdings Genehmigungsprozesse, die schneller laufen könnten. Deutschland brauche „einen Investitionsboost, damit die Wirtschaft wieder schneller wächst“.[12:03]Hans-Eckard Sommer, Präsident des Bundesamts für Migration und Flüchtlinge, sieht Fortschritte bei der Reduzierung der Asylantragszahlen: „Die Migrationswende ist im vollen Gange. Durch Binnengrenzkontrollen und gesetzliche Maßnahmen liegen die Zahlen um 50 Prozent niedriger als im Vorjahr.“ Zur Frage, ob syrische Fachkräfte abgeschoben werden, erklärt Sommer: „Wer hier arbeitet, sollte einen Aufenthaltstitel als Fachkraft beantragen. Dann spielt ein Widerruf des Schutzstatus keine Rolle. Die Sorge, dass eine syrische Pflegekraft abgeschoben wird, ist fehl am Platz.“ [06:23]Der schwedische Rüstungskonzern Saab entwickelt einen neuen Kampfjet, der mit Modellen aus den USA, Deutschland und Frankreich mithalten soll. Micael Johansson, CEO von Saab und Präsident der Aerospace Security and Defense Industries Association of Europe, betont im Security.Table-Interview die Notwendigkeit einer stärkeren europäischen Zusammenarbeit: „Deutschland ist für uns ein unglaublich wichtiger Markt. Wir verstehen, dass Deutschland souveräne Fähigkeiten braucht.“ Gleichzeitig kritisiert er das Tempo der europäischen Rüstungszusammenarbeit: „Bin ich zufrieden, wie schnell das geht? Nein, nicht wirklich.“ Es gebe immer noch Länder, die lieber US-Equipment kaufen.

Ukrainas nya ambassadör i Sverige, Svitlana Zalisjtjuk, om JAS Gripen, vad som kan sätta press på Putin, och Ukrainas framtid. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Den 22 oktober besökte Ukrainas president Volodymyr Zelenskyj Sverige, och undertecknade en avsiktsförklaring mellan Sverige och Ukraina om att Ukraina på sikt ska få köpa stridsflygplanet JAS Gripen. Ambassadör Svitlana Zalisjtjuk menar att affären skulle vara en investering i europeisk säkerhet, inte enbart ukrainsk, med tanke på exempelvis ryska sabotage i EU-området.”Gripenavtalet handlar det om hur vi ska skapa en luftsköld, inte bara för Ukraina, utan också för EU, och för Sverige. Det handlar om att stärka vår förmåga så att vi kan skydda vårt luftrum, vilket också innebär att ni kan skydda ert”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk, som tillträdde som Ukrainas ambassadör i Sverige i september.När och hur JAS Gripen eventuellt skulle kunna börja levereras till Ukraina är oklart i nuläget, och enligt ambassadören diskuteras när en första leverans kan äga rum.Enligt Ulf Kristersson skulle det första JAS-planet kunna levereras tidigast om tre år, är det tillräckligt snabbt för Ukraina?”Vi skulle vilja att det sker tidigare, och vi förhandlar om att andra JAS-plan skulle kunna levereras snabbare”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.Även hur ett eventuellt köp av JAS-plan ska finansieras är oklart. Svitlana Zalisjtjuk vill att det ska finansieras genom lån med säkerhet i ryska frysta tillgångar i EU.Vi har hört rapporter om att Saab, som tillverkar JAS Gripen, planerar att bygga en fabrik i Ukraina där delar av JAS Gripen skulle kunna monteras. ”Jag kan bara säga att det har diskuterats av min president, er statsminister och Saabs vd”...”Men det är för tidigt att offentliggöra något av innehållet i dessa förhandlingar”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.Det är många detaljer som är oklara. Är du säker på att Ukraina faktiskt kommer att få JAS-stridsflygplanen? ”Jag är säker. På samma sätt som jag är säker på många andra saker som inte kunde hända men som ändå har hänt”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.Situationen i UkrainaNyligen har Ryssland intensifierat attackerna från luften och siktar in sig på att skada Ukrainas infrastruktur och energisystem. Svitlana Zalisjtjuk anser att Ryssland har lagt om sin strategi för att de inte når framgångar vid fronten.”De är maktlösa på frontlinjen, och därför bombar de våra städer för att skrämma civila. De har faktiskt”...”ökat sina attacker mot den civila infrastrukturen för att beröva människor dessa nödvändiga tjänster.” säger hon.”Vi arbetar just nu tillsammans med internationella partners för att få den utrustning vi behöver för att ta oss igenom vintern”, fortsätter Svitlana Zalisjtjuk. För att försvara sig i nuläget behöver Ukraina först och främst luftvärnssystem, enligt Svitlana Zalisjtjuk. Men även gas, sedan ryska attacker förstört delar av den ukrainska gasproduktionen, och reservdieselgeneratorer.”Vi behöver dieselgeneratorer för att driva skolor, förskolor och så vidare. Och vi ber människor, de som kan, att hjälpa oss med detta”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.USA:s och EU:s stödAmbassadör Svitlana Zalisjtjuk säger att USA:s stöd förblir avgörande för Ukraina, och hon medger att samarbetet inte varit helt enkelt.Skulle du säga att USA är en pålitlig allierad? ”Jag tycker att det går i rätt riktning”...”Kommunikationen mellan min president och president Trump har blivit mycket bättre” säger hon.De nyligen utfärdade amerikanska sanktionerna mot de ryska oljebolagen Rosneft och Lukoil anser Svitlana Zalisjtjuk är det bästa Donald Trump gjort. Enligt henne kommer sanktionerna kosta Ryssland fem miljarder dollar per månad.De pågående förhandlingarna inom EU om att använda de frysta ryska tillgångarna för att säkra Ukrainas finansieringsbehov sätter ytterligare press på Putin, anser Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.”Jag tror att Putin försöker matta ut Ukraina finansiellt. Om ryska frysta tillgångar – och kanske borde jag säga när ryska frysta tillgångar – kommer till Ukraina, får Putin ett tydligt budskap att Ukraina är finansierat för de tre kommande åren, att väst stöder dess kamp, och att Putin därför inte kommer att få det han vill”, säger hon.Ukrainas framtidPresident Zelenskyjs femåriga mandatperiod löpte ut 2024, men i enlighet med Ukrainas konstitution hålls inga val i krigstider. Svitlana Zalisjtjuk menar att det också skulle vara omöjligt rent praktiskt att hålla val under krig.”För att kunna hålla rättvisa val måste man dra tillbaka trupper, och ge även armén rätt att delta. Och se till att väljarna har säkerhet när de röstar. Tyvärr har vi inte den lyxen just nu”, säger hon.Behöver president Zelenskyj på något sätt förnya sin legitimitet som Ukrainas politiska ledare? ”Jag tycker att vi måste följa mitt lands konstitution, och vår lag säger mycket tydligt att val inte kan genomföras under krig. Eftersom kriget pågår kan landet inte säkerställa rättvisa och rättfärdiga val”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk. Hur Ryssland och Ukrainas relation kommer se ut när kriget är över har Svitlana Zalisjtjuk svårt att föreställa sig.”Det kommer att ta hundra år innan vi kan titta åt det hållet med någon annan känsla än hat”, säger honInnan Ryssland blir en demokrati ser inte Svitlana Zalisjtjuk hur relationen mellan Ryssland och Ukraina skulle kunna förändras.Hur förbereder sig Ukraina för en möjlig tid när Vladimir Putin inte längre är vid makten i Ryssland? ”Efter Vladimir Putin kommer det en ny Vladimir Putin. Det är åtminstone så jag ser den samhälleliga utvecklingen i Ryssland. Jag är inte säker på att Ryssland kommer att bli demokratiskt inom överskådlig framtid”, säger Svitlana Zalisjtjuk.

Some marginal catching up going on here; more episodes in the queue... What's in it? Car fads like the BMW 3-Series, Audi 5000 and SAAB 900s versus electric cars, and how the electric car fad is coming to grief over its feasibility issues (couldn't help ourselves); a microcosm of plug-in car failures in the Volkswagen Buzz (and why no one's buying the hype because it doesn't match the myth - or reality - of the original VW Bus). There's curvy road fun (and failure) with Colorado's fabulous, famous and frightening 550 - a nice job by Zebulon Pike - and why you shouldn't try to mess with your phone when a right turn starts with a 300ft curb. We also take a somber moment to discuss being safe with your ATV because it's easy to get yourself killed on a quad or snowmobile, even when you've got the money of a Lending Tree CEO or the skillset of a Ken Block. Risk takes brains and skill, and even that ain't always enough (...'Tis better to hit the deer than miss the road). There's more about Big Boy 4014's plans for a coast-to-coast run in 2026, sunken treasure from Florida's Treasure Coast, Blackbeard, Tommy Thompson and the S.S. Central America, the French pick a winner with the Guardian of Liberty, a new door kills an old finger, plus Amon Tobin rolls tracks throughout; with details on albums and soundtracks (just "Like Regular Chickens").

After more than a year fossilised in amber, Australia's third largest airline looks to have avoided extinction – American firm Air T has agreed to buy Rex, prompting roars of approval from government and industry as well as the best name for any corporate buyout in history. But while Air T brings with it plenty of Saab 340 parts to resurrect Rex's dinosaur planes, will fleet renewal still be on the menu – and will creditors get their money back? Jake, David, and graduate journalist Bethany Alvaro make approximately too many Jurassic Park references as they dissect Air T's Rex purchase and what it might mean for the regional airline's future. Plus, the first jet lands at Western Sydney Airport; ex-Virgin boss Paul Scurrah returns to aviation; and what, scientifically, is an "RBH"?

Among the many reasons the Saab car division went belly up years ago were little things like putting the transmission drain plug so close to the engine oil drain plug that they were practically daring you not to mistakenly open the wrong one.

Alexander Skarsgård (Murderbot, Melancholia, True Blood) is an Emmy Award-winning actor. Alexander joins the Armchair Expert to discuss accidentally signing up for a month-long cross country ski trek in the South Pole, gaining 25 pounds and long hair in the final season of True Blood because he was prepping to play Tarzan, and how everyone in Sweden exhibits symptoms of No Tall Poppy Syndrome. Alexander and Dax talk about why a sprinkle of anarchy would be good in Sweden, growing up around actors and artists he longed for a dad that drove a Saab, and joining the military as a response to being raised by bohemians. Alexander explains booking his first Hollywood audition for Zoolander, playing AI gone rogue in Murderbot, and whether as a Swede he's liberated from the hedonic treadmill of obsessing about money.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
