In June 2022 Indonesian President Joko Widodo went first to the Ukraine, and later to Moscow, hand delivering a letter from President Zelensky to Vladimir Putin. His purpose, to quote, was to open a dialogue forum for peace, to build peace, because the war has to be stopped.

Guest: Associate Professor Nobuhiro Aizawa (School of Social and Cultural Studies at Kyushu University).

Recorded on 18th April, 2023.
