Listen "It's Not Their War"
Episode Synopsis
Sara Wheeler reflects that the attack on Ukraine is not the war of the Russian people she has known.
"The calamitous news eroding any remote sense we might have nurtured of peace in our time is, we now know, not going to cease any time soon. Yet while the image of a villainous Russia dominates the news agenda, I remember Russians I have met over the years on my travels in their land. This is not their war." Producer: Sheila Cook
