About this episode

Timothy Ash discusses Ukraine's challenges in peace negotiations and the implications of international support.

The economist Timothy Ash is an associate fellow in the Russia and Eurasia program at Chatham House in the UK and a senior sovereign strategist at RBC Bluebay Asset Management in London. He is a seasoned expert on political and economic affairs in Russia and Ukraine. Mr. Ash talks about the major challenges Ukraine faces in the current peace negotiations brokered by the U.S. between them and Russia. He believes the Trump Administration offers little hope to end the Russia-Ukraine war. He suggests the EU should announce a specific date for Ukraine's entry into the EU to provide a focus for the ongoing process and provide guarantees for Ukraine's existence as an independent state. https://www.chathamhouse.org/about-us/our-people/timothy-ash https://www.kyivpost.com/post/68604
