Episode notes

Elon Musk tweeted scenarios in which he thought this war would end. "This is highly likely to be the outcome in the end," says CNN's John Defterios. Putin wanted Ukraine to remain a satellite state of Russia, one that was beholden to Russian foreign policy interests and wouldn't join NATO or the European Union. But at this point, we're talking about some kind of armed neutrality where Ukraine mostly aligns with the West"

The next Congress could be a whole lot less willing to keep spending billions on aid to Ukraine. It’s time to talk about how this war could end.

This episode was produced by Victoria Chamberlin, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard with help from Miles Bryan, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram.
