US efforts to end Russia’s war in Ukraine have so far not yielded anything close to a peace deal. Both Russia and Ukraine have objected to some aspects of the Trump administration’s plan. What – if anything – might make a lasting peace possible? Gideon Rachman speaks to Sir Lawrence Freedman, emeritus professor of war studies at King’s College London, about what each party wants from a peace deal.Free links to on this topic:Podcast: Future weapons: Ukraine’s army of drone: https://on.ft.com/3GKlW00US and Ukraine sign natural resources deal https://on.ft.com/4iRd4mYSteve Witkoff, the Trump loyalist disrupting diplomacy https://on.ft.com/3EKE89qSubscribe to The Rachman Review wherever you get your podcasts - please listen, rate and subscribe.
