As new wars flare elsewhere, Russia’s attacks on Ukraine haven’t abated since 2022's full-scale invasion, and began well before it. Hear unique and urgent perspectives on how we got here from exiled Russian journalist Mikhail Fishman, whose The Successor charts Russia’s decline from 1990 to 2015 through the life of assassinated activist and opposition leader, Boris Nemtsov – and Russia expert and former BBC Moscow correspondent, Martin Sixsmith, whose Suing the Kremlin documents efforts to recover the oligarch era’s lost billions. Chaired by Caroline Eden.
