After Trump’s meetings with Putin and Zelensky, is the Ukraine war any closer to peace? Is Putin serious about ending the war – and accepting security guarantees for Ukraine? Or is he playing a longer game? 

Steve is joined by Janice Stein and a special guest to discuss the state of the Ukraine war, land swaps, Article 5, and whether Canada should pursue closer ties with Russia. 

Today’s guest is Zach Paikin. He is a Research Fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and Senior Fellow at the Institute for Peace and Diplomacy. He is also Steve’s son.
