After unexpectedly pausing military aid to Ukraine last week, the US administration has once again reversed its decision.Writer: Nina KuryataProducer: Ada BaruméExecutive producer: Rebecca Moore Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Despite pressure from the Trump administration for a peace deal or a ceasefire in Ukraine, Russia appears to be stepping up its attacks, launching almost 500 drones and missiles at Ukraine earlier this week. With President Trump keen on bringing this war to an end, or washing his hands of what he views as a European issue, Europe is debating how to build up their defense capabilities and support Ukraine. Professor Lawrence Freedman joins Thanos Davelis as we break down whether Europe is in a position to support Ukraine without Washington, and look into the broader lessons from the war in Ukraine.Lawrence Freedman is an emeritus professor of War Studies at King's College London, the author of Command: The Politics of Military Operations From Korea to Ukraine, and a co-author of the Substack Comment Is Freed.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:As Trump Wavers, Europe Is More Optimistic About Defending UkraineRussia Launches Biggest Drone Assault of the War, Ukraine SaysThe Age of Forever Wars: Why Military Strategy No Longer Delivers VictoryGrowing Conflict and Uncertain Alliances: On the Future of European SecurityMitsotakis visits Odessa on WednesdayAmerican AI powerhouse eyes Cyprus

Russia continues to pound Ukraine, with drone attacks overnight coming just hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke to his American counterpart Donald Trump. Last month Bridget Brink resigned her post as US Ambassador to Ukraine in protest over the Trump Administration's marked change in policy towards Russia and Ukraine.

With breaking news and shocking headlines still happening on a weekly basis, sometimes it's hard to believe that  the current war in Ukraine has been going on for more than three years. You may have heard a neighbor or family member asking… why should the United States be involved at all? With so many problems here at home, why should we care about a war on the other side of the world?Well, there's two different ways to answer that question: the humanitarian crisis, and our national security. In this episode, we dive into both. Trump still says he's committed to ending the war. But will he end it in a way that's good for Ukraine and democracy? Or will he end it in a way that's good for Vladimir Putin... and himself? This war is already tragically close to home for kids in Ukraine, and it could be other kids across the world – including ours – that feel it next.So the next time you hear someone ask why the United States should care about this war, you can share this episode and tell them exactly why we should support Ukraine.For a transcript of this episode, please email theswppod@redwine.blue.

Today, we're diving into the complexities of modern life, society, politics, and the search for meaning with the insightful and thought-provoking David Pakman. In this compelling conversation, Tom and David explore the disconnection and purposelessness many people feel today, and whether religious practices still hold the key to fulfillment. They tackle a broad range of topics, from the increase in suicides to the role of social media pressures, and the evolving significance of religion in the age of scientific understanding. David Pakman provides his perspective on the decline of religious affiliations, the politicization of religion, and the broader societal issues contributing to our current sense of disillusionment. Moreover, they delve into the complex realm of U.S. foreign and domestic policy, debating the country's role as a global policeman, support for Ukraine, and the public's complicated perception of authoritarian figures. The conversation also touches on immigration policies, the aging political leadership in the U.S., and the rising religiosity among certain right-wing figures. As the episode unfolds, you'll hear Pakman's candid views on the cognitive abilities of political figures like Joe Biden and Donald Trump, the ethical imperative of comprehensive immigration reform, and the significant economic contributions of undocumented workers. We wrap up with a thought-provoking discussion on shared values, societal integration, and the importance of tolerance and respect in a diverse world.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: The Trump trial continues as day 14 continues to spell trouble for Trump, with the cross-examination of Stormy Daniels backfiring on his legal team. Trump made a few desperate motions during the trial, which were swiftly denied by the judge at the end of the day. Meanwhile, Trump's absence from campaigning raises eyebrows, replaced by a lavish NFT event where he boasts about his mental acuity. Nikki Haley's strong showing in Indiana shows more warning signs for Trump's chances in November.
