Episode 2 - From one head of state to another
Listen now
Description
In our first, formal episode, Darth & I are joined by the former president of Estonia, Toomas Hendrick Ilves, who gives us his take on the state of the war, Western Europe's almost willful lack of understanding of Russia, the selection process for head of NATO, what Medvedev is like in person, how Estonia became a success after de-occupation, and how he's that rare thing—a President of Estonia who didn't end up being murdered by the Kremlin. Once he leaves (by the nearest window), me and Darth have a quick chat about western academics and ceasefires. We have a Patreon now and will be adding some exclusive perks for the subscribers. https://www.patreon.com/IntheBunkerwithDarth My (Katie) twitter is @Kshmatsina
