³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

Your questions answered on the US election, Pokrovsk and guerrilla warfare…

With Donald Trump and Kamala Harris facing-off in their only scheduled presidential debate this week, we assess whether the election might accelerate any potential peace deal in Ukraine.

³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ security correspondent Gordon Corera joins Vitaly and Lucy to also discuss how strategically important the capture of Pokrovsk is for both sides and what evidence we have that Ukraine is waging a guerrilla war in the Russian occupied areas.

Today’s episode is presented by Lucy Hockings and Vitaly Shevchenko.

The producers were Arsenii Sokolov and Cordelia Hemming. The technical producer was Antonio Fernandes. The series producer is Tim Walklate. The senior news editor is Richard Fenton-Smith.
