Ukraine: The Latest

Anti-government protests break out in Kyiv & our clash with Russian sympathisers on the frontline of Cold War II

54 min • 23 juli 2025

Day 1,246.

Today, after a historic vote in the Ukrainian parliament which sparked the country’s biggest protest in wartime, we assess the damage to President Zelensky’s credibility following his decision to approve a bill some argue has gifted Putin a propaganda victory. Then we take you to Moldova – a nation on Europe’s edge, with the first of a two-part dispatch that includes our clash with Russian-sympathising politicians outside of the parliament.
