Memories of Ukraine
Manage episode 321717629 series 2909505
Last week Russia began a baleful and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, which has been fiercely resisted. While none of us feel qualified to discuss the war or offer analysis of it, we have recorded this to share some thoughts on Ukrainian democracy- particularly Chris' memories of being an election observer in Dnipro in 2012- and explain some of the background to the conflict by telling Ukraine's political history since independence.
This episode features audio recorded by Jonathan and Chris at anti-war marches in London and Manchester respectively
