This week, Saul David and Roger Moorhouse dissect the latest diplomatic manoeuvres and frontline developments in the Ukraine war. Donald Trump's much-anticipated phone call with Vladimir Putin, aimed at securing a 30-day ceasefire, resulted in a swift rejection and immediate Russian escalation.

Additionally, we have an update from the frontlines with war reporter and friend of the podcast Boldizsar Gyori, who describes the reality for the Ukrainian soldiers fighting in Kursk.
