  • 290. A Diplomatic Freeze
    May 23 2025
    A strange calm has fallen over diplomatic efforts in Ukraine, leaving many questioning the path forward. In this episode of Battleground Ukraine, Saul David and Patrick Bishop dissect the apparent anti-climax of recent US peace initiatives, including the much-touted Putin-Trump phone call. They discuss if the US begun to walk away from its peacemaking role, and if so, is Europe prepared to fill the void—militarily and politically—as Russia's appetite for conflict remains undiminished? They also look at Ukraine's strategic wins behind enemy lines, including a crucial strike on a Russian military-industrial plant and the increasing drone attacks bringing the war directly to Moscow.

  • 289. The Georgian Texel Uprising - The War Beyond Surrender
    May 21 2025
    In this episode of Battleground 45, Roger welcomes author and expert Eric Lee to delve into one of World War II's most remarkable and often overlooked events: the Georgian Uprising on the Dutch island of Texel. From April to well beyond Germany's surrender in May 1945, as the war in Europe drew to a close, a contingent of Georgian soldiers, conscripted into the German army, turned their weapons on their captors in a desperate fight for freedom on the Dutch island of Texel.

  • 288. Putin's No-Show at Peace Talks
    May 16 2025
    Welcome to a special edition of Battleground Ukraine. With Saul and Roger absent, producer James Hodgson joins Patrick to dissect the significant non-event of the week: Vladimir Putin's failure to appear at the first face-to-face talks between Russia and Ukraine in over three years – talks ironically initiated by Putin himself. What does Putin's no-show, and subsequently President Zelensky's absence, alongside a potential visit that never materialised from Donald Trump, tell us about the prospects for peace? While low-level delegations convene with limited authority, is this still a crucial moment in the ongoing conflict?
