This week Ukraine’s former foreign minister Dymtro Kuleba joins Latika Takes: The Podcast.
In this wide-ranging and candid interview, Mr Kuleba reveals Kyiv’s strategic mistakes, including how his attempts to cultivate Jared Kushner as a contact for Ukraine were blocked by President Volodymyr Zelensky’s now-resigned but then-all-powerful chief of staff, Andriy Yermak.
He discusses how Russia gained the advantage over Ukraine, which fell into the trap of believing its own spin after early battlefield wins.
He also discusses whether Ukraine needs or wants the Coalition of the Willing and his belief that Vladimir Putin will attack a NATO ally within years, if the US and Europe stay on their current course.
Finally, Mr Kuleba reveals his thoughts on a Presidential run.
