Ukraine correspondent Sasha Vakulina joins Stefan Grobe to examine the outcome of Witkoff and Kushner’s meeting with Putin, aimed at advancing negotiations to end Russia’s war against Ukraine.
From Dublin, Euronews NATO correspondent Shona Murray reports on President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s late-night meeting with the US envoys at a military base outside the Irish capital. She also looks ahead to the gathering of EU leaders and what they are likely to make of the latest diplomatic developments.
Europe’s economic challenges are also in focus. Mateusz Szczurek, head of the IMF’s European Department, joins Stefan in the studio to discuss sluggish growth, rising public debt and borrowing costs, and the continent’s persistent competitiveness problems. He also examines the risks facing the eurozone, political instability across Europe and why reforms identified in the Draghi report have been so slow to materialise.
Finally, Andrea Renda, head of research at the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS), joins the programme to discuss the reported resignation of Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang amid allegations linked to an espionage scandal.
