Why Peace Remains Out of Reach in Ukraine

Episode 8047 | 18m 11s

Despite lengthy negotiations this week, Russia's war in Ukraine appears no closer to an end. During a visit to India, President Vladimir Putin promised to "liberate the Donbas...by military or other means." A Ukrainian delegation is heading to Florida to meet with U.S. officials in a bid for a fair deal. New Yorker writer Joshua Yaffa discusses what he believes it will take to stop the war.
