How close are we to the use of a nuclear weapon in current conflicts?
Join me, Dana Lewis, as I discuss the nuclear arms race with Rose Gottemoeller, a distinguished former arms control negotiator. We dissect the deployment of long-range ATACMS missiles by Ukraine into Russian territory, exploring the nuanced strategic implications and potential nuclear fallout.

And marking the milestone of 1,000 days since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, we reflect on the relentless assault on Ukrainian infrastructure and the role of Western military aid. I am joined by Ukrainian lawmaker Oleksiy Goncharenko who says any deal with Russia has to bring peace, not just a ceasefire.

What if Donald Trump's re-election could redefine global politics? Join us for a conversation that explores this provocative question with Sir Mark Lyle Grant, a distinguished former British diplomat and National Security Advisor, as we dissect the political shockwaves reverberating through Europe and beyond.

The Back Story examines the potential implications for Ukraine, the dance between President-elect Trump and US intelligence agencies, and the broader rise of extremism with insights from Colin Clark of the Soufan Group.

And Former Lt General Ben Hodges on concerns Trump could use the U.S. military domestically. It's a huge concern for the officer core, which swears an oath to the constitution not to a commander in chief.
