Keep up the good work Telegraph. A daily must listen. I only hope the people in power who need to do so.

That final part by Francis hit hard. Well said.

Well said Francis! Brilliant and wise words at the end!

I don't know how accurate or up to date liveuamaps or deepstatemaps are, but there is a definate pincer move starting to take shape from the Ukrainians around Kherson in the past few days. Go on lads, take it to 'em!

I want to apologize, saying Clair was not that good. After listening to her, she is a welcome addition to the podcast.

[magesalmanac]

Real talk from your man at the end there. It’s important to separate a people from their government. look at Iran for an example.

[TheMartymar]

I love your daily updates, very factual and timely reporting. Greetings from the United States!

I think it is incredibly strange that the train that was blown up on the Kerch was stopped on the tracks for a long time…. When do trains ever stop on a bridge? I have looked at the footage over and over and the explosion does not flash outward from the truck. There is something really fishy going on here.

LtG Ben Hodges had a lot to do with influencing the need for HIMARS once the front shifted East and South.

[richarddodson]

I rely on this audio for daily updates. Thanks for doing this.

Such an excellent point that the gentleman made at the end there, we cannot alienate all Russian people. If we do that then we are choosing to go against the very values we are trying to uphold

[wbiro]

I was always surprised that the world did not react as one when Putin threatened the entire world in the very beginning of this, when he said, "There will be no world without Russia". I think the world better wake up and choose sides more wisely.

51:14. Excellent statement. Eternal vilification of Russians serves no one - especially Ukrainians who will continue sharing a border of some sort, as well as family ties. In 2013, my impression of Ukrainians attitudes towards Russians was that, in general, they were willing to forgive and move on from all the brutality and domination in the past, as long as Russia allowed them self-determination. This will be more difficult to overcome, but there will be a time where they must. That time seems well into the future, unfortunately.
